President Muhammadu Buhari has a big work for the leadership of the  ruling  All Progressives Congress (APC)  ahead of  today’s meeting  with the party’s  Senators-elect: ensure that the choice of Senate President  creates  no  crisis in the  rank and file.


Two prominent members of the party – Alhaji Ahmed Lawan and Dr.Bukola Saraki are locked in a tricky  battle for the position.


Buhari has declared that he will  not take sides with any of the candidates or pick a preference because “they are two brothers.”
Senators Lawan and Saraki are intensifying their  campaign ahead  of the election of the  president of the 8th Senate.

The Senate is scheduled for inauguration on Tuesday.

A source said the race for  the Senate Presidency featured at the recent meeting between Buhari and  APC leaders.

“You know the President met during the week with APC leaders. Although the meeting was behind closed doors  the issue of Senate Presidency came up,” the source said.

“At the session, Buhari charged the leaders to get a few things done in such a way that it will not lead to rancour between the candidates. He said after all, ‘they are two brothers.’
