As the leadership of the All Progressives Congress, APC, plans to meet to take final decision on the zoning of the offices to the six geo-political zones, the North Central caucus of the party yesterday met in Abuja and asked the party to zone the position of the senate presidency to the zone.
The APC caucus in the North Central in a communique signed by the zonal chairman chairman of the party, Mr. Zakari Ede, and the six states chairmen in region, said it was clear that APC will form the majority in the forthcoming 8th Assembly based on the results of the general elections.
The group which demanded for the position of senate president to be zoned to their area noted that in due course the “Senate President will be chosen from one of our Distinguished Senators.”
Their demand as they stated was hinged on the fact that the zone performed well in the election by giving adequate support to the party, adding that ceding the seat of senate president to will will be a reward for their performance.
Insisting that the North Central being a vulnerable zone, its success and victory should not be taken for granted, they said that it would only be just and equitable for the position of the Senate President to be allotted to the North Central.
