Senator Abba Moro of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been appointed as the new Senate Minority Leader for Benue South Senatorial District. This two-term Senator secured the position after being nominated by the opposition party and receiving affirmation in the red Chamber.

Senator Moro’s ascent to the role follows the removal of Senator Simon Davou Mwadkwon from Plateau North Senatorial District, a decision made by the Appeal Court.
The Minority leader position was earlier zoned to the North Central by the Senate, and despite being a first-time Senator, Mwadkwon was nominated by the minority caucus before his removal.
It’s noteworthy that Senator Abba Moro, the freshly appointed Minority Leader, served as the Minister of Interior during the administration of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan.
