The former lawmaker representing Kaduna central, Senator Shehu Sani said it will be the death of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP and the Labour Party in the National Assembly if the ruling All Progressices Congress, APC get the position of the Minority Leader.
Sani stated this while speaking in an interview with Arise Television on Monday.
He stated, “The signs that are coming is that they (APC) want to have a Minority Leader that will be a stooge of the ruling party, then it is done, it will be the death of the opposition (PDP) in the National Assembly.
“Why you hear more of the Labour Party today doing the opposition, it is that PDP has mortgaged their responsibility of the main opposition to Labour Party.
“Nobody is saying you should go to the National Assembly and fight the executive, but we know fully well that the dignity of the National Assembly is centered in its independence. There will be no independence if APC gets everything.
“The Minority Leader in a parliamentary system is like the alternative government. But, if we have a Minority Leader that will play the role of the opposition, it will be better for the country,” he said.

Recall that Godswill Akpabio and Jibrin Barau emerged the Senate President and Deputy Senate President of the 10th Senate, while, Tajudeen Abbas and Benjamin Kalu emerged Speaker and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives respectively.

In the Senate where all the 109 senators took part, Akpabio, a former governor of Akwa Ibom State and one-time Senate Minority leader, polled 63 votes to defeat former governor of Zamfara State, Senator Abdulaziz Yari (APC, Zamfara West) who polled 46 votes.
In the House of Representatives, it was smooth sailing for Abass as 353 of the 359 lawmakers inaugurated gave him their votes. His challengers, Idris Wase and Aminu Jaji polled three votes each.
