The All Progressives Congress (APC) has once again deferred action on the issue of zoning of principal offices in the incoming government till after Friday's inuaguration of the President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari .
Just like it did shortly after the election at the heat of the controversy over zoning of key  government positions, the party on Tuesday issued a statement denying that it has zoned the Senate Presidency and the office of the Speaker of the House of Representatives to any zone.

In a statement issued on Tuesday by its National Secretary, Hon. Mai Mala Buni, the party said its National Working Committee (NWC) never discussed the issue of zoning when they  met on Monday night.
Buni also denied that the NWC had decided to zone the Senate Presidency to the North-Central and the Speaker of the House of Representatives to the South-West,  saying nothing like that ever happened.
He said the party was deeply embarrassed by a report which was apparently planted in the media to sow the seeds of instability in the party.
