By convention, the majority party in any of the legislative bodies will choose the officers of the House.
I have never come across anywhere the minority party produces the leadership of the House of Representatives or the Senate.
It is the prerogative of the members to choose whoever they want as the speaker of the House of Representatives or the President of the Senate as the case maybe, if you are talking about Nigeria.
But it has yet to be seen how the majority party will let somebody other than one of their own to be the Speaker.
