Rejoicing broke out in the House of representatives after Tajudeen Abbas, the All Progressives Congress’s preferred candidate, won the current race for Speaker by a wide margin.

359 out of 360 members are taking part in the proceedings following a roll-call of members-elect.

There are three competitors, and it is anticipated that the winner will prevail by a simple majority.

A significant majority of the members-elect have “openly declared” their votes for Abbas.

Abbas is on the verge of defeating his opponents: outgoing Deputy Speaker, Ahmed Wase, and Sani Jaji, who have one and two votes, respectively, so far.

More coming..
