10th NASS: Tinubu To Meet Opposition Lawmakers Monday
President Bola Tinubu is scheduled to meet with opposition senators and members of the House of Representatives on Monday.
The invitation, signed by Tijanni Umar, the Permanent Secretary of the State House, on behalf of the President’s Chief of Staff, urged the lawmakers to attend and submit their list for security clearance.
The president will meet the opposition senators by 3pm and the Rep members by 5pm.
The primary objective of the meeting is reportedly to persuade the lawmakers to throw their support behind the ruling party’s candidate for the leadership positions in the National Assembly.
Recall that the National Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has chosen Godswill Akpabio (South-south) and Barau Jibrin (North-west) as their nominees for the positions of Senate President and Deputy Senate President, respectively.
