The race for the leadership of the 10th Senate took a fresh dimension on Tuesday as senator representing Imo West Senatorial District, Osita Izunaso
stormed the Presidential Villa, Abuja, to persuade President Muhammadu Buhari on why the position of the Senate President should be zoned to the South East.
He wanted the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, to decide on the zoning principle as a fair bargain for the South East. He said he remains the highest ranking senator and, therefore, will vie for the post of the Senate President.
