Senator Bukola Saraki earlier tweeted that he was delighted that his party’s NWC zoned the Senate Presidency to North Central. "I am delighted that NWC of our dear party yesterday reaffirmed its earlier decision to zone position of Senate President to North Central," - he said.
However, the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Working Committee (NWC) has dismissed statement, saying that nothing like that ever happened.
In a statement issued in Abuja on Tuesday by its National Secretary, Hon. Mai Mala Buni, the party said it was deeply embarrassed by the story, which was apparently planted in the media to sow the seeds of instability in the party.
"The NWC never discussed the issued of zoning at its meeting. Therefore, the report of its decision on zoning is a figment of the imagination of whoever concocted the story," - it said.
APC said nothing has changed since the president-elect said he is ready to work with anyone from any part of the country who occupies any of the principal offices of the incoming National Assembly, including those of the Senate Presidency and the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
Mehn,.the tension is high.
