APC North-Central Reps want Speaker’s position
Members of the All Progressives Congress from the North-Central zone in the House of Representatives have called on the ruling party to zone the position of the speaker to their zone.Speaking on behalf of the caucus, John Dyegh said their call was in the spirit of equity and justice.
“You are not unaware of the interest the issue of the leadership of the next assembly has generated in the public space. We want to use this medium to acknowledge the supremacy of our party, the APC, in addressing the issue of zoning of positions in an equitable, just and fair manner that will foster unity and cordial relations among members of our party and our colleagues from the other political divides.
The lawmaker said giving the slot to the North-Central zone would satisfy and advance the cause of equity “since the North-West and the South-West already have the president and vice-president positions, respectively.” The incoming 9th National Assembly may still throw up old foes in the contest of Speakership of the House of Representatives.
