They also called on the all senators-elect to rally around the president-elect’s choice and the party’s national leadership without rancour or disagreement.
He said;
“We see the joined ticket of Sen. Godswill Akpabio and Sen. Barau Jibrin as a wise leadership for the 10th National Assembly who will work assiduously for the betterment of Nigeria.
“Barau Jibrin, for example, is a man of integrity who has never been found wanting in all his national life and he is somebody who is focused.
“That is why his decision to withdraw his ambition and accept to be deputy clearly shows that he is a leveled-headed person and he deserves commendation,” he said.
Sani further heaped praises on President-elect, Bola Tinubu for his mature and nationalistic approach to leadership, which he said will change the narrative of religious and ethnic politics in Nigeria.
