Senator Godswill Akpabio will likely emerge as the new majority leader of the Senate when it resumes plenary later in September this year.

If this happens, it means Senator Ahmed Lawan, the current majority leader, would become the new minority leader, according to opinions of analysts.

Akpabio’s emergence is a result from the defection of 15 senators on Wednesday making the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) having the majority at the Senate.

With the defection, the All progressives Congress now has 48 members in the Senate while the Peoples Democratic Party has 58 members.


There are beliefs that the PDP may receive more decampees as some of the senators are reportedly yet to finally make up their minds.

Some of those who announced their defection include Dino Melaye.

It was learnt that the next batch of defectors to the Peoples Democratic Party would include the Senate President, Bukola Saraki.

Congrats senator

THIS GOD THAT CHANGES PEOPLE SITUATION IN A TWINKLING OF AN EYE IS A GREAT GOD

You and Resurgent2019 should keep on jumping from one thread to another, celebrating as if you just won a million dollars raffle draw, and praising Saraki to the high heavens and showering fake prayers over him.
Saraki has suddenly become some of you's alpha and omega, overnight. How nonsensical.

I can't wait for 2019. I'm sure many of these fair weather politicians won't make it back to the NASS.

God will make us all victorious in the end.. From minority to majority.. From grass to grace..

I have been on a hiatus for almost an Hour. I wonder how you conjured the lie that i have been jumping from thread to thread. In any event, today has been one of the happiest days for me in this year. I am so pleased that i havent been able to work in the office


May God bless Saraki for helping to save Nigerians from APC and Buhari.

Lol

But why are people calling Gods name.

Nigerians like to call Gods name in vain.

So much joy in PDP, celebration things
