Former Minister of mines and Steel Development, Abubakar Bwari, believes zoning Senate Presidency to North-Central will go a long way to checkmate insecurity, poor infrastructure and economic sabotage that has bedeviled the region for decades, iwitnesslive.com can report.
Fielding questions from reporters in Abuja, on Wednesday, Bwari urged All Progressive Congress (APC) chieftains to consider zoning the office of Senate President to north central.
“Following the conclusion of the presidential and National Assembly elections, two very important positions have gone to the South-West and North-East geopolitical zones.
“Other zones are now clamouring for the third most important position in the country, that is the Senate Presidency.
“If we look at performance, the North-Central did very well for the APC in the last election.
“If you consider our strategic location and performance, we should be given number three position.
