Barring any last-minute changes, the ruling All Progressives Congress will meet on its platform with President-Elect Bola Tinubu, his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima, senators-elect, and members of the House of Representatives-elect.

According to Channels Television, the meeting will take place on Monday, March 13 at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

Senator Iyiola Omisore, National Secretary of the APC, disclosed this in an invitation sent to Tinubu, Shettima, and the lawmakers-elect.

Although the meeting is scheduled for 2 p.m., invited guests were instructed to be seated by 12 noon – two hours before the meeting’s official start.

After being declared winners, the guests were urged to bring their Certificates of Return from the Independent National Electoral Commission.

“This is to inform all Senators-elect and members of the House of Representatives-elect of the All Progressives Congress (APC) that they are invited to a parley with the party’s national leadership,” the invitation read.

“The meeting, which will be attended by the President-elect and Vice President-elect, will be held at the State House Banquet Hall, Aso Rock Villa, Abuja. Senators/House of Representatives-elect must come to the meeting with their Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Certificates of Return and must come alone.

“The meeting is strictly on invitation. Date: Monday, 13th of March 2023. Time: 2 pm prompt. Venue: State House Banquet Hall, Aso Rock Villa, Abuja. All invited guests are expected to arrive early to allow for screening and be seated before 12 noon.”

The agenda of the meeting was not officially stated, but a source who craved anonymity said the meeting is unconnected with the leadership of the 10th National Assembly that will be inaugurated in June.

The zoning of the Senate presidency, Speaker of the House of Representatives, and other key positions in the National Assembly will also be discussed.

According to the source, the APC is attempting to avoid the situation that occurred in 2015, when Senator Bukola Saraki was elected Senate President against the wishes of the party.

Saraki, who represented Kwara Central Senatorial District in the 8th Assembly, was elected Senate President while 51 APC senators were reportedly waiting for a truce meeting called by the party’s leadership and President Muhammadu Buhari at the International Conference Centre.

He was elected unanimously by the 57 senators in attendance and sworn in on June 9, 2015.
