Abdullahi Adamu, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has claimed that the list of principal officers for the 10th National Assembly, which was announced by Senate President Godswill Akpabio and House of Representatives’ Speaker, Honourable Tajudeen Abbas, is not from the party’s secretariat. Adamu made these remarks during a meeting with the Progressives Governors’ Forum, led by Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State.
Senator Akpabio had earlier announced names of the Senate principal officers including; Senator Opeyemi Bamidele from Ekiti State as Senate Leader, Senator Dave Umahi from Ebonyi State as Deputy Senate Leader, Senator Ali Ndume from Borno State as Chief Whip, and Senator Lola Ashiru from Kwara State as Deputy Chief Whip. Akpabio also announced the names of the minority principal officers, including Senator Simon Davou (Plateau North – PDP) as Minority Leader, Oyewunmi Olarere (Osun West – PDP) as Deputy Minority Leader, Darlington Nwokeocha (Abia Central – LP) as Minority Whip, and Rufai Hanga (Kano Central – NNPP) as Deputy Minority Whip.
