Buhari: Again, I have no candidates for N/Assembly leadership


For the second time, the president-elect, General Mohammadu Buhari has said he was not interested on who emerges the senate president or the speaker of the House of Representatives in the 8th National Assembly.

He also reiterated his willingness to work anyone chosen by the members irrespective of their backgrounds

In a statement released in Abuja by Buhari’s Head of Media team, the incoming president said his second release on the issue was necessary in view of the continued name-dropping in some circles linking his name to some candidates.

“I am prepared to work with any leaders that the House or Senate selects,” General Buhari said in the earlier statement two weeks ago. “It doesn’t matter who the person is or where he or she is from.”

He added that “there is due process for the selection of leaders of the National Assembly and I will not interfere in that process. Nigeria has indeed entered a new dispensation. My administration does not intend to repeat the same mistakes made by previous governments.”
