Again, APC senators in crucial meeting with Oshiomhole
Tue, 14 Aug 2018
Following the abortion of the much-touted National Assembly reconvening, the Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole and senators of the ruling party, last night met in Abuja, for the fifth time since his emergence in June.
Although the meeting was still ongoing at press time, it was gathered that the issue of Bukola Saraki and his continuous stay in office as Senate President as well as plans to stop more APC lawmakers from defecting, dominated discussions.
Beside Oshiomhole and the APC senators, top security agents were alleged to have attended the meeting, which held in Abuja.
Last week Oshiomhole met with the APC senators on the eve of the invasion of the National Assembly by operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS). A few days before that, he and the senators also met with President Muhammadu Buhari. Meanwhile, anxiety enveloped the National Assembly following the suspension of the reconvening of the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Daily Sun gathered that the leadership of both chambers are of the view that the possibility of the planned emergency sitting, which was widely believed to have been fixed for this week, may not work.
