The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, has replied a letter written by the national Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, John Oyegun, to him on June 23, 2015, directing him to appoint party nominees as principal officers.

Mr. Dogara in his reply, dated July 16, 2015, recalled his earlier claim that a court case instituted by some members on the matter, made it impossible for him to make all necessary consultation on the chairman’s letter.

Mr. Dogara also informed Mr. Oyegun the need to respect Federal Character, and enumerated the tradition of the House of Representatives regarding how Principal officers are elected.

He then proposed to the APC Chairman a list of zoning of principal offices that would best reflect the spirit of Federal character.

He stated that The North East and South West have already produced the Speaker and his deputy. He therefore, proposed that the House Leader should come from the North West (with 86 APC members) Deputy House Leader, from the North Central (with 33 APC members), while Chief Whip and Deputy Chief Whip would come from the South South and South East respectively.

SICK OF THESE HEADLINES....

Happy birthday SEUN

cc VirginFinder e don happen oh. I posted this specifically for you.

Dogara is a democrat personae, God bless that Speaker

.in case...

The APC leadership are very foolish for trying to compensate Tinubu with house leader so that his puppet will cause problems for the speaker. Dogara is a better leader than the terrorist we have in aso rock

Once humble and loyal Dogara has suddenly changed becoming vocal and bold. That is the magic power brings. I bet many APC leaders have not come to terms with this new Dogara.

Time to move on APC.

1st to comment.

He is still keeping the hope alive.
That should also support the move for Biafra.

I think APC should simply accept and fill this list based on respect for all zones. Insisting Gbajabiamila must be house leader leaves more to desire. Nigerians want an end to this crisis and APC should precipitating crisis to massage one man's ego.

Yellowbar eyes no be open eyes

This one is TKO to Tinubu and his slaves

That man (tinubu) still dey so?...eehya that man still dey suffer from heart attack after Buhari and my saraki broke his heart
