Senator-elect for Osun East Senatorial District, Francis Fadahunsi, has berated the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Adams Oshiomhole.
In a statement by his media aide, Sam Segun-Progress, Fadahunsi accused the APC chairman of treating senators like school pupils.
The Senator-elect berated Oshiomhole over his endorsement of Senator Ahmed Lawan as the next Senate President.
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senator-elect also warned that Senator Lawan may at the end be seen as a stooge of the executive with the way the party is going by his adoption.
“What is the business of the executive with the election of principal officers of the National Assembly? The way the party is going about it is exposing Senator Lawan,”Fadahunsi said.
“The action of the National Chairman of APC, Adams Oshiomhole, is like that of a headmaster giving instructions to his pupils.
“The APC ought to be discreet with its lobbying, not grandstanding about imposing an anointed candidate on senators. This is because the party is exposing Senator Lawan to the danger of being viewed and labelled as a stooge of the executive.”
