Rescue North West has kicked against religious consideration as criteria to choose the Senate President, noting that winning elections are no child’s play.
The group in the All Progressives Congress appealed to the National Working Committee of the party to zone the Senate President to the North West and consider Sen. Barau Jubrin for the position.
It stated that the dividend of election should not be awarded to the one who expended less resources and energy on religious sentiment. “Several reasons have been canvassed, from the mundane to the sublime, which are not uncommon when people seek to grab, at all costs, plum positions and jobs. Everyone will justify why it should be theirs.”
