Senate Gets New Minority Leader, Whip  

Post created on 2:42 pm

The Senate on Tuesday named Senator Philip Tenimu Aduda as the new Minority Leader, while Senator Chukwuka Utazi was also named the Senate Minority Whip.

Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, announced the appointments while reading two separate letters signed by the National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Samuel Anyanwu.

The seat of the Minority Leader became vacant following the defection of Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe (Abia South) from the PDP.
