Akpabio, Uzodinma, others meet Tinubu at state house after successful NASS inauguration

Senate President Godswill Akpabio and chairman of the Progressives Governors’ Forum, Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State met with President Bola Tinubu at the State House, Abuja on Tuesday after the inauguration of the 10th Senate.

This is coming after Akpabio’s emergence as the country’s Senate President of the 10th National Assembly today.

Recall that on Monday, the Imo Governor who chaired a small technical committee to help coordinate the process of Tuesday’s election in the Senate and the House of Representatives said his team is hopeful of a landslide victory for the Akpabio.

However, Akpabio emerged as the winner to beat his contender, Senator Abdulaziz Yari, both members of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

With this, President Bola Tinubu most likely has fulfilled his deal to make sure the former governor of Akwa Ibom State becomes president of the senate after stepping down for him to win the presidential primary of the All Progressives Congress.
