The Senate South-East Caucus is asking the APC to zone the Senate Presidency of the 10th Assembly to the region for fairness and justice.
, Musa Saidu, says the South-east region of Nigeria cannot get the Senate Presidency of the 10th National Assembly because it “failed to learn from its past mistakes”.
“You are talking about fairness and justice when you didn’t even vote for the APC during the 2023 general election. “Supposing he didn’t win the election, would he be in the position to zone the Senate Presidency?” he said. “I think that the zoning of the Senate Presidency to South-south is not entirely a bad idea because the zone performed better in terms of voting for the APC in the last election,” he said.NAN reports that the Senate South-East Caucus, on 7 May urged the APC to zone the Senate Presidency of the 10th Assembly to the region for fairness and justice.
“The President-elect should be sensitive to the times in Nigeria and ensure the country continues to thrive on the part of equity, unity and fairness to the tripod of Nigeria and the geopolitical zones.
