Honourable Muhammad Monguno has withdrawn his ambition to back the candidacy of the Majority Leader of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, as the Speaker of the Ninth National Assembly.
Monguno, one of the frontline contenders for the position of Speaker, immediately declared his support for Gbajabiamila based on All Progressives Congress (APC) decision and personal conviction.
Speaking on Thursday, the lawmaker said the decision of the ruling APC supersedes personal ambitions.
Besides being an advocate of party supremacy and a loyal party member, Monguno said having zoned the Senate Presidency to the Northeast, fairness dictates that House members from the same region should naturally drop Speakership ambition.
