Former Governor Abdulaziz Yari of Zamfara State has dropped a bombshell.

He said: “I am still in the race for Senate President. “Every lawmaker has the right to seek elective positions.”

“I am a loyal party man, nobody has told me that any position has been zoned to anywhere as far as the 10th National Assembly is concerned.”

“Position of president of the senate is first among equals among the 109 senators. Any senator-elect who wants to occupy the position must seek the support of others which I am doing.”

It is interesting to know that the All Progressives Congress (APC) have nominated Godswill Akpabio and Jibrin Barau as Senate President and Deputy Senate President, respectively.
