Oshiomhole Speaks On 9th NASS Leadership

The ruling All Progressives Congress has declared that it has no plan to share the leadership positions in the National Assembly with the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party.

National Chairman of the APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole gave the insight on Monday during a meeting of the party with House of rep members for the ninth national assemably elected on the platform of the party.
