All Progressives Congress (APC) will hold a two-day retreat for all its senators-elect in Abuja on Friday and Saturday.
It is believed that the party will put to rest the issue of the zoning of the senate president position at the retreat.
Senators who have shown interest in the top position of the upper chamber include George Akume (Benue), Bukola Saraki (Kwara) and Ahmed Lawan (Yobe).
In a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday by its national publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, the APC said the retreat would be held at the Ibeto Hotel in Apo area of the city.

It urged the senators-elect to arrive at the venue, where accommodation arrangements have been made for them, by 6 p.m. on Friday as there would be a closed-door meeting between all senators-elect and party leaders at 8 p.m. on the same day.
“The two-day retreat is part of efforts being undertaken by the party to ensure that the legislators hit the ground running for the benefit of Nigerians,” the party said.
