The National Vice Chairman of the All Progressives Congress for the North-West region, Mallam Salihu Lukman
But Lukman, in a statement released in Abuja on Wednesday morning titled ‘APC and Transition Politics,’ said, “Senator Abdullahi Adamu, instead of acting as the National Chairman, facilitating the implementation of decisions of organs of the party, is acting as a factional leader opposing the decision of the NWC.
He also lamented that the party and its National Secretary, Senator Iyiola Omisore, “blocked all organs of the party from meeting, except the NWC.” Lukman stated, “In the case of the NWC, it is more a case of spoon-feeding members with convenient information. And where challenged as was the case with the court case aimed at restoring constitutional order in the party, the National Legal Adviser, Ahmed El-Marzuq, become handy with spurious legal interpretations, which are anything but legal, bereft of any logic.”
Efforts to get the reaction of the APC National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, and the party’s Director of Publicity, Bala Ibrahim, failed. Morka did not pick calls or respond to messages sent by our correspondent, while Ibrahim said he could not speak on the issue.All rights reserved.
