silami:
After a series of preparatory meetings ahead of its assumption of control on May 29, the incoming ruling party, All Progressives Congress, has drawn up a zoning arrangement for key federal legislative and executive positions. Barring any last minute changes, a document ratified by the APC national leadership and national caucus members Thursday night may form the basis for the allocation of executive positions and emergence of principal officers of the National Assembly from across the six geopolitical zones. The document, which was obtained by THISDAY, shows that the office of Secretary to the Government of the Federation is zoned to the South-east. The incumbent SGF, Senator Anyim Pius Anyim, a former senate president, is from Ebonyi State in the South-east.

The zoning to South-east puts paid to speculations that the director-general of the APC presidential campaign organisation and Rivers State governor, Rt. Hon. Rotimi Amaechi, may become the next SGF. It also ends the alleged spirited effort by some APC governors from the North-east to produce the new SGF, with the current Secretary to the State Government of Borno, Ambassador Ahmed Baba Jida, widely suspected to be the choice of the governors.

In other positions, the post of Senate President is zoned to North-central, the same zone of the outgoing holder of the position, David Mark, who is from Benue State. Speaker of the House of Representatives is given to South-west, where the vice president-elect, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, hails from. Osinbajo is from Ogun State.

APC zoned the office of Deputy Senate President to North-east and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives to the South-south. Chief Whip of the Senate is zoned to North-west, where the Katsina State-born president-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari, comes from, while North-central gets the office of Chief Whip of the House of Representatives.

The post of Deputy Chief Whip of the House of Representatives is zoned to South-east. There are only two members of the House elected on the platform of APC from the zone in the March 28 election. They are Hon. Austin Chukwukere from Ideato North and South Federal Constituency and Chike Okafor from Ehime Mbano, Ihite Uboma and Obowo Federal Constituency of Imo State.

The position of Majority Leader of the Senate is zoned to South-west, while Majority Leader of the House of Representatives goes to North-east. Deputy Majority Leader of the Senate is zoned to North-west, and Deputy Majority Leader of the House of Representatives goes to North-central.

Chairman of the Board of Trustees of APC is zoned to North-east, with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar widely expected to clinch the post. South-east is given secretary of the BoT.
The posts of national chairman and national secretary of APC remain in the South-south and North-east, respectively. Chief John Odigie-Oyegun from Edo State is national chairman and Alhaji Maimala Buni from Yobe State is the national secretary.

Seven senators from three zones have signified their intentions to contest the senate president slot. They are Senators Bukola Saraki, a former Kwara State governor (Kwara Central); George Akume, Senate Minority Leader (Benue North-west); Olusola Adeyeye, a vocal senator and professor of Molecular Biology (Osun Central), Danjuma Goje, a former Gombe State governor (Gombe Central); Ahmad Lawan, a former university don (Yobe North); Ali Ndume, a former House of Representatives Minority Leader (Borno South); and a former House of Representatives Deputy Speaker, Usman Nafada (Gombe North).

With the zoning of the slot to North-central, the contest will now be between Saraki and Akume.
In the House of Representatives, there are currently eight contestant for the office of speaker. They are APC caucus leader, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila (Lagos); Chairman House committee on House Services, Hon. Yakubu Dogara (Bauchi State); Chairman House Committee on Finance, Hon. AbdulMumin Jubril(Kano); Hon. Pally Iriase (Edo); Hon Ajibola Famurewa(Osun); Prof. Mojeed Alabi(Osun); Hon. Mohammed Monguno(Borno); and Hon. Jagaba Adams Jagaba(Kaduna). Of the eight contestants, only Gbajabiamila and Adeyeye are from the South-west where the speakership has been zoned to.

I think every zone has been adequately taken care of in the zoning formula.

Now that Amaechi cannot be the next SGF, I expect to see him in charge of a very powerful ministry such as petroleum resources, power or works.
Ameachi is too big for a minister. He is the Chief of Staff to the President, he needs to work closely with the President

Ngige will prolly be that SGF if the above story is to be believed. He deserves it too.
Why Ngige? there are people of south east that have been in APC before Ngige somebody like the former governor of old Abia State Dr Ogbonnaya Onu. He is from Ebonyi state and he is the national chairman of ANPP before it metarmorpsed to APC.

Why are you hyper-retrogressive? With the gibberish aeronausiphobia you just spurn out, I understand the standing of your countenance, the rabbis from APC broom as diluted your mind such that you are now scared of Arachibutyrophobia. Go for spiritual cleansing or probably you see a local doctor because I can see Agateophobia from your trash.

You are wrong. In every Zone there are people who are capable , competent and qualified for any position. The issue should be after zoning, d right person from dat zone should be chosen. Zoning is very important for unity in a multi cultural and multi religion nation like nigeria

Why are you exposing your ignorance in a public forum like this? Who told you ss did not join in the fight for Biafra? FYI, many gallant Biafran soldiers who fought in civil war came from the ss region. Though some bad eggs sabotaged the struggle, there were and are still many faithful MEN from ss who are pro Biafra.

You tried to justify Fashola's "deportation" of Nigerians from their supposed fatherland? How daft can you get, miss The fact that Igbos rose against the action now means that they hate Yoruba tribe That's a very silly assumption!

Let me inform you that Igbos don't hate other Nigerian tribes as much as they are hated out of envy. If you have any relative living in the east, ask him/her how many times he has been attacked on account of tribe. If he/she can be honest enough, the response will be none! We live in peace with other tribes in the east despite the provocation that come from other tribes attacking Igbos in their regions.
I have met many Hausa men who confessed that
tthey would rather cohabit with Igbos than Yorubas! If it were true that we hate them, they won't be saying that!

No matter where positions r zoned to. Both APC and PDP m3mbers will have problems with buhari, when he attempts to slash their benefits. He must do that, or his govt has failed from the start.

No money.

There definitely would be money. By the time all the looted funds in PDP hands are assembled the govt would not be short of funds to execute its programmes.
