Senate Leader, Ahmed Lawan, has said his recent emergence should pose no threat to the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu.
Lawan debunked insinuations that his emergence was a threat to the Deputy Senate Leader, Ike Ekweremadu on Monday, January 16, 2017.
“We are looking forward to working together in a brotherly way in the APC caucus and indeed, with senators in other political parties,’’ Lawan said.
Lawan said he would consolidate the unity and stability of All Progressives Congress (APC) caucus in the upper legislative chamber.
Lawan stated this on Monday in Abuja when he visited the APC National Chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun and members of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC).
According to him, my emergence was all about party supremacy expressed by members in the senate.
He said that with the APC united in the senate, it had no reason not to deliver its campaign promises to Nigerians.
“As much as the people were expecting more from the party, the leadership is already working to improve their lot.
“Now, we have a united APC caucus in the Senate and in the House of Representatives; we have no reason not to perform to the expectations of Nigerians within the constraints of our economy,’’ he said.
The lawmaker, however, thanked God for his new role, which, he said, would address the party`s leadership crisis in the senate as well as unify its members.
