Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has revealed his intention to meet with National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu.
The pair have been at loggerheads since June 9, when Saraki, defied the wish of the APC, to emerge leader of the Senate.
Ever since, Tinubu has gone quiet, even as Saraki yet again on Thursday, June 25, went against the APC in the selection of principal officers of the Senate.
However, Saraki says he has great respect for Tinubu, even though they both failed to agree on the issue of the National Assembly leadership.
While speaking with journalists in Abuja on Saturday, June 27, Saraki, said he had reached out to Tinubu in the interest of the progress of the party and the nation.
“Regards to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu; as you all know, he is one of the leaders of the party. I have great respect for him. We have worked closely together before. Unfortunately, my group did not agree with him on this issue.
However, we are both responsible and committed to the project of the party and Nigeria that we will overcome this and move forward. It is part of our plans, as part of the healing process, to meet with him and it will happen soon.”
