The All-Progressives Congress (APC) finds itself embroiled in a deepening zoning crisis, with stakeholders expressing conflicting views on the party’s recent decisions. The National Working Committee of APC had recently announced the zoning of key positions for the 10th National Assembly, assigning the Senate Presidency to the South-South region and the Speakership of the House of Representatives to the North-West. Additionally, the Deputy Senate Presidency was zoned to the North-West, while the Deputy Speakership was assigned to the South-East.
However, amidst the ongoing controversy, Dr. Kailani Muhammad, the National Chairman of Progressive Congress Amalgamated, revealed that the party and the President-elect have not finalized their support for Senator Godswill Akpabio as the Senate Leader. Dr. Kailani further emphasized that the position of Senate President should be open for all elected senators to contest.
The party’s decisions have sparked both support and opposition from various stakeholders. While some stand in favor of the party’s move, others demand a thorough review of the zoning arrangements. The situation remains tense as the APC navigates the intricate web of conflicting opinions within its ranks.
