Ahmed Wase, the deputy speaker of the House of Representatives, has reiterated that he will not withdraw in favor of any candidate running to be the next speaker of the National Assembly.<\/p>\n

After his Friday meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa<\/a> in Abuja, he revealed this to State House correspondents.<\/p>\n

Recall that the All Progressives Congress (APC), which is now in power,\u00a0 zoned the position to the North-West with Hon. Tajudeen Abbas from Kaduna State receiving preference.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cI am in the race, and by the grace of God, I am going to conclude the race. I have not withdrawn or stepped down for anybody.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, he argued that the APC\u2019s National Working Committee (NWC)<\/a> letter, which outlined the zoning as advisory, also allows for continued discussions on the matter.<\/p>\n

According to Wase, the advisory nature of the letter contradicts Section 14(4) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended).<\/p>\n

He stated that Section 14(4) of the Nigerian Constitution states that the composition of the Government of the Federation, including its agencies, should reflect the federal character of Nigeria.<\/p>\n

He emphasised that the constitutional provision aims to promote national unity, avoid the dominance of individuals from specific states or ethnic groups, and ensure the loyalty and harmony of the nation.<\/p>\n

Highlighting the importance of diversity in leadership, Wase emphasised that Nigeria has six geopolitical zones and that the government currently comprises six presiding officers.<\/p>\n

He argued that neglecting his North-Central zone for the deputy speaker position would not only be contrary to the constitutional principle of federal character but would also disregard the significant support and votes his region has contributed to the government.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not just speaking for myself,\u201d Wase asserted, underlining the shared sentiments among fellow candidates.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can\u2019t bring a Deputy Senate President, but you can give us the Deputy Speaker role.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou cannot neglect us, even though we have given one of the best outcomes in terms of voting and support to the government,\u201d Wase added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
