10th NASS leadership: Tinubu has no preferred candidates – Shettima

The Vice President-elect, Senator Kashim Shettima has revealed that the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, has no preferred candidates for the 10th National Assembly leadership at the Senate and House of Representatives.
Tinubu who was represented by Shettima made this known at a meeting with new members-elect to the National Assembly in Abuja.

A member-elect for Bungudu/Maru Federal Constituency of Zamfara State, Abdulmalik Bungudu, revealed this to our correspondent shortly after the meeting.

Bungudu, who spoke in the Hausa language, revealed that Tinubu told attendees that he had no preferred candidates for any of the principal offices of the 10th NASS.

The new lawmaker quoted Shettima to have told the meeting that Tinubu doesn’t have anybody in mind to be Senate President or Speaker of the House of Representatives.

“For now, he (Tinubu) said he doesn’t have anybody that he prefers to have as Senate President or Speaker, but consultations are going to continue to get the way out for the party and to also ensure the party emerges victorious in the forthcoming governorship and Houses of Assembly elections.”
