Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>As intrigues continue to mount ahead of the inauguration of the 10th National Assembly leadership, Hon Yusuf Gagdi has said the President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu is unaware of the All Progressives Congress, APC, endorsement of some lawmakers.<\/p>\n

Gagdi, the House of Representatives member representing the Pankshin\/Kanam\/Kanke federal constituency of Plateau State, disclosed this to journalists on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

He reacted to APC\u2019s endorsement of Abbas Tajudeen and Benjamin Kalu as Speaker and Deputy Speaker of the Green Chamber, respectively.<\/p>\n

APC had on May 8 anointed Tajudeen and Kalu as Speaker and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives.<\/p>\n

However, Gagdi and other aspirants, a group now known as G7 seeking the positions, have kicked against APC\u2019s choice.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cThe principal of our president-elect(Bola Ahmed Tinubu) whom I so much respect and up till today I don\u2019t believe that what is happening today the president-elect is aware of, or it is his idea. That is why we keep on challenging the party\u201d.<\/p>\n

Members of the G7 group are Hon. Muktar Betara, deputy speaker Hon. Ahmed Wase, House leader Alhassan Ado-Doguwa, Sada Soli, Aminu Jaji and Miriam Onuoha and Gagdi.<\/p>\n

The House of Representatives and the Senate leadership would be inaugurated in June after the President-elect\u2019s swearing-in on May 29, 2023.<\/p>\n
