Some political analysts believe the president is right to stay away from party crises. This, some said, will let democracy thrive within the party...
and when he did, threw his support behind one of the contenders for the position of acting national chairman, Victor Giadom.While some APC officials have frowned at Mr Buhari’s style of looking the other way, while the party was falling apart, his spokesperson, Femi Adesina said theIn a recent video interview with a UK-based Nigerian, Ata Ikiddeh, on the Edo APC crisis, he said the president likes to be fair to everybody and those complaining about his stillness do not know what he has done.
“Coming from the blackmail of being a military dictator, you will see a president that is restrained and does not want to interfere with workings within the political party. In a presidential democracy, the candidate of a party and the government are not fully participatory in the activities of the party immediately after elections are over.
The reason people talk about the president, he explained, is “because we want him to solve every problem. Is it possible?” Public Affairs Analyst, Jide Ojo, noted that the constitution of APC does not recognise the title, national leader and the president is just a leader of the party and member of the NEC.
“Article 23b of the constitution of APC says in the event of an emergency NEC meeting, you need seven days notice but that notice was not up to two days. If the NWC had gone to court, they would have humiliated the president because due process for the meeting was not followed and as such, decisions taken there were null and void.”
