Majority of APC senators support Lawan’s recommendation as Senate President – Sabi

By Musa Abdullahi Krishi


Majority of senators-elect of the All Progressives Congress (APC) are in support of the recommendation of Ahmad Lawan as the 9th Senate President, Sen Aliyu Sabi Abdullahi had said.

Sabi, who represents Niger North Senatorial District on the platform of the APC, said it was not true that majority of the APC senators were “shocked” at the selection of Lawan by the APC.

The APC National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, had during a dinner with President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday night said the party was recommending Lawan for the position.

However, one of the contenders for the seat, Mohammed Ali Ndume, from Borno state told journalists in Abuja on Tuesday that most of the APC senators at the dinner were shocked and that the position did not represent what Buhari wants.

However, reacting to Ndume’s claim, Sabi, who is Senate spokesman, said there was nothing like “shock,” rather, he said, majority of the APC senators applauded the party’s decision.

“When our National Chairman made the announcement during the meeting, majority, if not all, the senators present applauded him. Everybody was comfortable with the position of the party. So, there wasn’t anything like shock,” he said.

Sabi also said that the APC senators supporting Lawan were in talks with senators-elect of the PDP to gain their support for a smooth running of the Senate to deliver good legislations for Nigerians.

He said he believed Lawan is the best man for the job at this time given his wealth of experience and track records.

He just might be the worst senate president in Nigeria history .

ok

Nobody should support any one who is promising to amend the constitution to allow buhari as many tenures as he desires.
That one is not fit to be a Senate president but a presidential ass licker. They should reject the useless Lawan

ok

Good to know you guys made the right choice and did not repeat the same mistake you made in 2015.

Anything to move the country forward is highly welcome.
We are on the right track to a new Nigeria.
To the NEXT LEVEL of our lives we go. 
Slow and steady we will get there.

We believe so much in our darling President MUHAMMADU BUHARI and his amiable Vice president Prof Yemi OSIBANJO....
God bless Nigeria.

Rubbish

OK.PDP will use the rest senators to bring Goje

Lol. Now they are liaising with PDP. I thought Oshiomhole was saying they can decide the next SP all by themselves.

Can you please show us proof where Lawan promised to amend the constitution for PMB to become a field Marshall?

Honchovv:
So nothing for the east

Which east?

Hmm, everybody should play by the rules o

But the minority of APC Senators can wreak havoc in conjunction with PDP Senators...

You've never applauded any progressive development about Nigeria! Like you can't remember that you have no other place beside Nigeria. Pray tonight that God may purge your cynical soul of pessimism. You may not yet know it; those other countries you people see as El Dorado went through this phase of development at one time or another. Nigeria is on the path to Greatness - even the blind can feel it: wonder why you can't!

Anybody can be, so far not from South East.

Will the Senate President put food on your table? No! We don't care who becomes the senate president.

Don't mind that ugly dwarf...he thinks it all about talking anyhow...main reason he lost a lot of states to PDP...he talks anyhow thinking he's the alpha (just like in the one featured in AMC's The Walking Dead)

I hope they don't kill themselves for this SP position ? They are now making the position too juicy for their selfish interest. PDP looks more organized than APC in some legislative matters during their time compare to now.
