President-Elect Tinubu has responded to the brewing crisis in APC regarding the 10th NASS leadership.
EKO HOT BLOG reports that President-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu has dismissed the likelihood of a repeat of the 8th Assembly drama, which saw the opposition outsmart the All Progressives Congress (APC) to take control of the nation’s legislature, amidst the ongoing crisis surrounding the leadership of the 10th National Assembly.
The National Vice Chairman of the APC Southwest, Isaac Kekemeke, speaking on behalf of Tinubu, stated this during a lecture held in honour of Chief Reuben Fasoranti, the Afenifere Leader, who recently celebrated his 97th birthday.

According to him, the party still has enough time to bring the warring factions together before the inauguration of the National Assembly.
He allayed fears that the opposition would hijack the leadership of the National Assembly.
“Opposition will not take over the National Assembly; both the President-elect and party are working tirelessly to ensure that whatever you perceive as anger will be sorted out, and this is a democracy,” he said.
A week ago, APC endorsed Senator Godwill Akpabio and Tajudeen Abbas as Senate President and House of Representatives Speaker.
Since then, aspirants for the 10th NASS leadership have threatened to boycott the party.
