In a statement issued by his spokesman, Oluwatosin Osho, the cleric said if a Muslim emerges as the next Senate President, the incoming administration will be in jeopardy because there will be political tension in the country.
According to Ayodele: “In all fairness, the Igbos should produce the next Senate President; if not, a Muslim will emerge and jeopardize the incoming government’s activities. It will also cause political tension and imbalance in the government.
“Igbo lawmakers need to be united than ever before in order to push one of their own to become the next senate president because if they are unable to make it happen, the region will be sidelined in this incoming government.JAMB Result
