Zoning of National Assembly offices: APC leaders' meeting end in deadlock

A meeting of top members of APC convened to resolve all disagreements bordering on the zoning of top offices in the incoming National Assembly ended in a deadlock on at the Rivers state Governors lodge Abuja on Wednesday April 22nd.

According to Vanguard, the meeting came to a deadlock after the leaders failed to reach a consensus on where to zone the office of the speaker of the House of Representatives. The members were divided between zoning it to the North-East and South-West. The leaders however agreed on the zoning of the office of Senate President to the North-Central and the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, to the South-East.


Sources say outgoing minority leader, Femi Gbajabiamila and Yakubu Dogara are being nominated for either speaker or deputy speaker of the House of Representatives. In attendance at the meeting were President-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd); Vice-President-elect, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo; party leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu; governors-elect, senators-elect as well as some top executive officers of the party.

      @Royal Priesthood, you are obviously spoiling for a fight today. Of what gain is it to you going around from topic to topic, trying to incite negative comments against Igbos? What is our business with how APC are dividing positions? Position that only the holder (and possibly family members, friends and kinsmen) will gain from?

      Stop this nonsense. It's further lowering the low respect people have for you.

    PLS, IS THAT ALI MODU SHERIFF IN THE FRONT ROW?

    ISNT ALI MODU SHERIFF SUPPOSED TO BE ARRESTED TODAY BY EFCC FOR THE MISSING N300BILLION BELONGING TO BORNO STATE?

    WHAT IS GOING ON?

    IS THIS THE SAME GENERAL BUHARI THAT CLAIMED THAT HE WILL FIGHT CORRUPTION AND TERRORISM?

    TERRORISM:
    ALI MODU SHERIFF IS ACCUSED OF BEING A MAJOR SPONSOR OF BOKO HARAM.

    CORRUPTION:
    ALI MODU SHERIFF IS ACCUSED OF STEALING N300BILLION BELONG TO THE PEOPLE OF BORNO STATE. HE IS SAID TO HAVE USED ABOUT $75MILLION TO PURCHASE A TOP OF THE RANGE PRIVATE JET.

    HAS BUHARI BEEN USING ALI MODU SHERIFF'S PRIVATE JET?

    GENERAL BUHARI'S DAUGHTER IS MARRIED TO ALI MODU SHERIFF'S NEPHEW WHO IS LIKE A SON TO ALI MODU SHERIFF.

    BUHARI IS ALI MODU SHERIFF'S IN-LAW.

    ALI MODU SHERIFF, THE MAN WANTED FOR TERRORISM AND CORRUPTION OFFENCES, IS NOW WITHIN THE INNER CIRCLE OF IS IN LAW, GENERAL BUHARI, THE MAN WHO FOOLED NIGERIANS INTO VOTING FOR HIM.

    IT STINKS. Y'ALL BEEN FOOLED.
