Ahead of Tuesday’s inauguration of the 10th National Assembly, President Bola Tinubu, who seemed determined to get candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC) elected as presiding officers, has begun to pull all stops in their favour, in ensuring that both Godswill Akpabio and TJ Abbas are elected Senate President and Speaker of the House of Representatives respectively.
This decision also included their deputies, who are Barau Jibril as the Deputy Senate President, and Benjamin Kalu as the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives.
