However, the national chairman of the APC, Sen. Abdullahi Adamu, has hinted that the party will reconsider the issue after a string of protests by other aspirants.
Yesterday, a source within the party made the following statement: “The President-elect has promised that our governors, the NWC, and all of the aspirants will meet this weekend to resolve the issues around the zoning but his boys are busy cutting corners to undermine the integrity of the institution,” the source said.

While this was going on, it was learned and gathered that one of the candidates for the speakership position, Hon. Aliyu Betara, met with the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, at a meeting in Paris, France, and insisted on running for the position.
“The only thing that has saved the situation is the fact that our incoming speaker, Betara, who was invited to Paris to meet the president-elect, had the intestinal fortitude to tell them that he would rather fail on the floor of the House on the day of the inauguration than withdraw for Abbas.
“The irony of the situation is that if they continue to believe that the G6 can be cracked, they are only fooling themselves.
According to the source, “The guys are determined to pursue a common goal to the end unless the president-elect personally interfaces with them.”
