the All Progressives Congress (APC) lawmakers to toe the party’s line in the
election of principal officers.
Senate
President Bukola Saraki yesterday announced the names of principal officers and
adjourned plenary till July 21.
President
Muhammadu Buhari said: “The party did a straw poll – an open and transparent
one – which should have been respected. There is no confusion about anything.
The party did a process, the President had wished that the party would take
that to the very end but that didn’t happen,” presidential spokesman Garba
Shehu said.
“The
President has a responsibility to the party; the President has a responsibility
to the nation and as far as we are looking at the situation, it has not gotten
out of control. It is still within manageable parameters; it is a little storm.
We will overcome and Nigerians better get used to it,” he added while speaking
on Channels Television.
