10th NASS: We Haven’t Decided Leadership Positions Yet, Says APC

The All Progressives Congress (APC) says it is yet to zone the 10th national assembly leadership positions.

The ruling party was reacting to reports of the purported zoning arrangements making rounds on social media.

In a statement on Thursday, Felix Morka, spokesperson of the APC, said the information circulated on social media should be disregarded because it did not emanate from the party.

Morka said APC would communicate the decision it has taken on the leadership positions in the national assembly.

“The attention of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has been drawn to versions of zoning arrangements for the 10th National Assembly leadership positions in circulation in sections of social media,” he said.

“The information did not emanate from the party and should be disregarded.

“To be clear, the party has yet to zone positions of leadership of the 10th national assembly. Any decisions made in that regard will be duly communicated via the party’s official information channels.”

Shortly after the general election, Abdullahi Adamu, national chairman, had said the national working committee (NWC) of the party would work with Bola Tinubu, president-elect, to produce a zoning formula.

However, the party has not decided on how it wants to zone the positions.
