Before Tuesday’s inauguration of the 9th National Assembly, new elected Senators on Saturday in Abuja endorsed Sen. Ahmed Lawan as unopposed to contest as Senate President.
The campaign group Chairman, Senator Yahaya Abdullahi from Kebbi state, a second timer, explained that they proactively nominated Ahmed Lawan to avoid a repeat of what happened in 2015.
Secretary of the Campaign group, Senator Jibrin Barau called names of Senators that have so far endorsed Ahmed Lawan’s candidacy.

The roll call has APC Senators elect as 62, PDP 1 and YPP 1
