The Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) has denied reports alleging crisis in choosing minority leaders of the party in the Senate, saying the sponsors of such stories were only afraid of the emerging robust opposition in the upper legislative chamber.<\/p>\n

National Publicity Secretary of the party, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said on Sunday that the so-called crisis exists only in the jaundiced imagination of unpatriotic elements within and outside the Senate who cannot understand the cohesion among the various opposition senators in the chamber.<\/p>\n

While saying that reports on such disagreements should be taken with a pinch of salt, he said those who will occupy the various posts have been chosen unanimously by the Senate minority caucus, at a fruitful and friendly meeting, and that no one who craves peace and harmony in the Seventh Senate dares reject such leaders, as has been insinuated by those sponsoring such negative stories.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe minority parties in the Senate met in Abuja on June 8th to agree on the distribution of the positions as follows: ACN with 18 Senators (Minority Leader and Minority Whip); ANPP with 7 Senators (Deputy Minority Leader); CPC with 7 Senators (Deputy Minority Whip), while LP with 4 Senators, as well as APGA and DPP with 1 Senator each, are to be given special consideration when committees are to be constituted,\u201d Mohammed said.<\/p>\n

He added that following the agreement, the parties were asked to bring their nominees, who were unanimously approved by the minority caucus as follows: ACN (Senator George Akume as Minority Leader and Senator Ganiyu Solomon as Minority Whip); ANPP (Senator Ahmed Yerima as Deputy Minority Leader) and CPC (Senator Abu Ibrahim as Deputy Minority Whip).<\/p>\n
