The Senate Leader, Ahmed Lawan (Yobe North), has insisted that the 9th bi-cameral house members will be dominated by elected members of the All Progressives Congress after 2019 general elections.
Lawan made the assertion Saturday in Bauchi State in a chat with reporters shortly after north east APC national executive council meeting.
He said once APC dominates the NASS the current face-off between the executive and the legislatures will stop.
“The current crisis in the NASS is being initiated by the opposition members deliberately to frustrate and divert President attention to ensure good governance,” alleged Lawan.
Lawan added the APC is not sleeping on its oars to ensure it win the majority seat to the NASS during 2019 election to enable President Buhari consolidate on the gains of democracy.
The senator boasted that most of NASS that defected to the opposition party were currently regretting their actions and declared APC readiness to received them back to its fold
“In fact, we are ever ready to still receive defectors back to APC on realizing their mistakes because they are in fear of losing 2019 election even after enjoying automatic tickets in the opposition,” Lawan stressed.
According to the Senate Leader, one important aspect of the meeting was to canvas support for president Buhari’s re-election in north east region come 2019.
He further boasted that PDP will cease to exit after 2019 elections and cautioned Atiku to bury his presidential ambition.
Lawan maintained that already the APC stakeholders in the region had mobilised votes for Buhari re-election.
