9th Assembly: UK Envoy Meets Lawan, Discusses Agenda

The British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Catriona Laing, has met with the Senate Leader and frontline candidate for the Senate President seat, Senator Ahmed Lawan, to discuss an agenda for the 9th Assembly.

The UK High Commission said on its official Facebook page that the envoy met with the Senate Leader to discuss police, oil sector and electoral reform.

A caption which accompanied the photo read, “Good to meet Senator Ahmed Ibrahim Lawan and discuss priorities for the 9th Assembly. The NASS has a busy legislative agenda coming up including electoral, petroleum and police reform bills- Catriona Laing, British High Commissioner to Nigeria.”

The meeting between the two was seen as an endorsement of Lawan by Britain.

The senator from Yobe State has also been endorsed by the All Progressives Congress.

The National Leader of the APC, Bola Tinubu, threatened last week that any party member who was not ready to bow to the wishes of the party should get out.
