    The Minority caucus of the 10th Senate has stated that it will resist any attempt to destabilise the leadership of the opposition parties.
    The caucus made this known in a statement on Saturday signed by the stakeholders in the minority Senate.
    Some of those who signed are the leader of the caucus, Senator Adamu Aliero; former governor of Sokoto state, Senator Aminu Tambuwal; Senator Seriake Dickson and  Senator Abdul Ningi.
    Others are Senator Abba Moro, Senator  Francis Onyewuchi, Senator Sumaila Kawu, and Senator Ifeanyi Ubah.

    This was coming against the backdrop that former governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, visited the Senate Complex and was hosted by the Senate President, GodsWill Akpabio and the Deputy Senate President, Jibrin Barau.
    Others who were also at the meeting were Senators like Salihu Mustapha ( APC Kwara Central), Jibril Isah ( APC Kogi East ) as well as the recently appointed Senior Special Assistant, National Assembly Matters ( Senate ) to President Bola Tinubu, Senator Abdullahi Abubakar Gumel.
    Following the meeting, sources alleged that Wike was trying to usurp the minority caucus by ensuring his men emerged in the minority leadership.
