The All Progressives Congress (APC) on Wednesday said that it settled for Senator Ahmed Lawan as the next Senate President after wide consultations with the President and other leaders of the party.
It said the choice followed consideration of all available options.
The
party also said the stand of the party not to share power in the
National Assembly with the Peoples Democratic Party (APC) is borne out
of the fact that it has a clear majority and does not need the PDP to
run successful government.
National Publicity Secretary of the
party, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, told reporters on Wednesday in Abuja
that having settled for Lawan as Senate President, the party is working
out an acceptable zoning formula for other positions in the Senate and
House of Representatives.
