The scramble for the National Assembly leadership position among the All Progressives Congress (APC) lawmakers-elect has reportedly resulted in Nigeria’s president-elect Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu returning to the country.
The APC’s presidential candidate is set to leave his place of rest in Paris to attend to the lawmakers-elects battling for leadership roles in the incoming 10th Assembly.

A source disclosed that the former Lagos state governor will return home on Monday, April 10, 2023, to perfect all arrangements for his inauguration which is billed for May 29.
The source also revealed that Tinubu’s trip to London and Saudi Arabia as planned might also be cancelled.
He said: “We heard that Asiwaju has cancelled his Umrah trip and may return to Nigeria on Monday. “Although we were not told the reason, I suspect that it must be in connection with the manner in which Kalu, Akpabio and (Jibrin) Barau are giving the APC sleepless nights with their lobbying campaigns.”
