In a surprise twist, Saraki of the All Progressives Congress (APC) who was nominated by Senator Ahmed Yerima in a motion and seconded by Dino Melaye was elected unopposed on the floor of the House while Ekweremadu of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was nominated by Abie Sekibo from Rivers State. Saraki was immediately sworn into office. Saraki election is coming despite earlier rejection by his party which preferred the candidate of Ahmed Lawan. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

I forsee PDP assuming leadership and majority in that Assembly before 2019. I also forsee a showdown between Saraki led senate and the executive. Its already clear that saraki doesn't respect the VP. 1 Like |
