Pro-Dogara group in the House of Reps say they
will never accept Hon Femi Gbajabiamila as the House Majority Leader. In
a statement signed by Abdulmumini Jibrin representing Kano state, the
group said true federal character as stated in the Nigerian constitution
for the appointment of key positions in the National assembly must be
enforced.
The group argue that the North East and the South West cannot
produce any principal officer again after Hon Dogara from Bauchi state
in the North East and Yusuf Lasun from Osun state in the South West
already occupy key positions as Speaker and Deputy Speaker respectively.
The group has however offered to give the Gbajabiamila
faction the opportunity to produce the next Majority leader but says
that Femi Gbajabiamila himself cannot occupy the position. This has
however been refused by the Gbajabiamila led faction who have said their
position to ensure that Femi Gbajabiamila is made Majority Leader is
non negotiable
