May 15, 2023 8:47 AMThe Progressives Foundational Movement , a group in the All Progressives Congress , has thrown its weight behind the speakership bid of Tajudeen Abass, a lawmaker from Kaduna state.
The decision has been criticised and opposed by many of the party’s members — especially those interested in the positions. “It will amount to injustice against the defunct CPC members in the APC if other defunct parties like Action Congress of Nigeria that produced the President-elect, the defunct All Nigerians Peoples Party produced Vice President-elect and the New Peoples Democratic Party is allowed to Produce the Senate President, then Hon. Tajudeen Abbas should be given the opportunity to represent the defunct CPC as speaker, house of representatives,” he said.
