“The President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, may travel out. But definitely not tomorrow.”

APC chieftain reacts to Onaiyekan’s comment on Tinubu’s inauguration
A chieftain of the ruling All Progressives Congress disagreed with the remark of the Archbishop Emeritus of the Catholic Dioceses of Abuja, Cardinal John Onaiyekan, that it made no sense to inaugurate politicians whose elections were being challenged at the tribunal.
In a chat with Legit.ng on Monday, May 8, Williams Dakwom, a member of the APC presidential campaign council in Plateau state, described the comment made by Onaiyekan as inappropriate.
The APC chieftain noted that such comments should be channelled to the appropriate authority, adding that only the court has the power to stop Tinubu's inauguration if nothing else does on Monday, May 29, 2023.
APC officially announces nominees for Senate president, speaker, other positions
The ruling APC has officially announced Senator Godswill Akpabio as its nominee for the position of the 10th Senate president.
Also, Abbas Tajudeen, a ranking member of the House of Representatives from Kaduna state, was nominated for the position of speaker of the next House of Reps.
The ruling party still has the highest number of lawmakers in the 10th national assembly.
