APC picks Wase as Deputy Speaker, says Jibrin – TheNigerialawyer

The All Progressives Congress (APC) may have adopted Idris Wase
(Plateau) as the Deputy Speaker of the 9th House of
Representatives, it emerged on Saturday.

The hint was dropped by Abdulmumin Jibrin (Kano), who is the
Director General (DG) of the Femi Gbajabiamila campaign
council.

Gbajabiamila had been adopted by the party at a presidential
dinner last month.

Jibrin, on his twitter account on Saturday, said any member of
the APC caucus that fails to heed to party’s choice of Wase
ultimately risked being sanctioned.

MURUS!!! Mr Speaker and Mr Deputy Speaker
9th Assembly. If you are an APC member and against the two, you are
on collision course with the party. 2015 is NOT 2019 in so many
ways. We are asuring our 360 colleagues, Femi and Wase will run an
all inclusive House. Hon A Jibrin DG pic.twitter.com/eJe9ffIxba^[1]
