A member of the House of Representatives representing Esan North-East/Esan South-East Federal Constituency, Sergius Ogun, has opined that the 10th National Assembly will be a ‘Rubber stamp Promax’.
Ogun, an ex member of the ad-hoc committee on petroleum downstream stated this on Monday during an interview with Channels Television.
According to him, it is unfortunate that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) wants to impose leadership on the National Assembly.
He said the situation would be the final burial of the independence of the National Assembly.
“By putting names to the zoning of National Assembly Leadership, it would be a rubber stamp Promax”, he said.
In a statement early this Month, APC publicity secretary Felix Morka announced former governor of Akwa Ibom state, Godswill Akpabio and Abbass Tajudeen, as endorsed candidates for Senate President and Reps Speaker positions.
However, party members interested in occupying the positions have openly shown their displeasure.
Meanwhile, the leadership of the 10 National Assembly would be inaugurated in June after the swearing-in of the incoming government on 29th May, 2023.
