10th ASSEMBLY: See Full List Of Senators Supporting Akpabio For Senate President

As the tussle for who will occupy the senate presidential seat of the 10th National Assembly, gets more rugged, seventy two non-serving senators, have heaped their support behind former Akwa Ibom state governor, Godswill Akpabio to become the next president.

Addressing a press conference in Abuja on Monday, Basheer Lado, former senator representing Kano Central who spoke on behalf of the others, expressed their support for the APC choice of zoning the senate presidency to the south south in the spirit of equity and fairness.

“We, in the spirit of equity, fairness, political expediency and following extensive consultations with stakeholders, hereby express our total support for the zoning of the position of the president of the 10th senate, to the south-south geo-political zone of Nigeria,” he said.

“We also affirm our unfettered support for the position of the president of the 10th Senate who also doubles as the chairman of the national assembly to be conferred on His Excellency, Distinguished Senator Godswill Obot Akpabio, CON.

He added that the position of senate president represents the third position in the hierarchy of our current democratic dispensational and that this position “carries considerable weight in discharging vital constitutional responsibilities and charting the right course for our national development.”

“It is also important that the holder of such a position enjoys the confidence and support of the party leadership and that of his peers as Senator Godswill Akpabio undoubtedly does.

“With this same spirit of fairness, we also affirm our solid support that the position of deputy president of the 10th senate is conceded to distinguished senator Barau I. Jubril, CON, representing Kano north senatorial zone, Kano state.”
