The National Vice Chairman of the All Progressives Congress North-West, Malam Salihu Lukman, on Monday, advised the party against choosing a Muslim lawmaker as the Senate President in the 10th National Assembly.
Lukman, who gave the advice in a statement titled: “Cash-and-Carry Contest for Leadership of 10th National Assembly,” issued in Abuja, declared that any Muslim vying for the nation’s number three position has no respect for both the APC and the country’s constitutions.
He warned that the selection of a Muslim as the Senate President would heat up the polity following the emergence of Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the country’s new president and Kashim Shettima, as his deputy.
