He said, “I want to make one correction so that we will not be misrepresented. Quite a number of you have referred to Hon. Abbas as the Speaker. Please, he is one of the aspirants. He will become a Speaker on the day of proclamation. The laws guiding the office are very clear. He will earn it (Speaker) on the day of proclamation by the President and Commander-in-Chief of the 10th National Assembly.JAMB Result

“In the meantime, wait and continue doing your good work. After reporting to the NWC about the discussions we had with the President-elect and leaders like the Vice President-elect, the Senate President, the Speaker; my humble self, my deputies (North and South) and the National Secretary, it was clear in our declaration that there is a need for further and better consultations so that we can take as much as we can to massage political egos so we can end up with what we want with National Assembly leadership in both chambers.”NYSC Portal
