The Director General of the Progressives Governors’ Forum, Salihu Lukeman, has in a memo addressed to the Chief Bisi Akande-led All Progressives Congress National Reconciliation Committee fingered the
APC National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, as the source of the party’s woes.
“Now, clearly the problem associated with candidates’ selection process has produced what can be regarded as an electoral college. Citizens can vote but our Supreme Court will eventually determine the winner. All as a result of very poor management of candidates’ selection process by our party.“Unfortunately, our party’s NWC is hardly able to come up with any reassuring response. The crisis in the party is clearly getting worse and worse by the day.
“In other words, our NWC can be described as a very efficient Trojan horse that opens the backdoor for electoral victory to our political opponents. It is really unfortunate that we are faced with all the avoidable electoral tragedies that befell us, all because our NWC has decided to abdicate its responsibility.
“One cannot blame this sycophantic crowd around our national chairman. But I will definitely express my disbelief at the way Comrade Oshiomhole has become all of a sudden, a leader who is intolerant to criticisms. He suggested a reversal of disciplinary measures taken by the Oshiomhole-led NWC as a first step to douse tension within the party.Lukman also suggested that a meeting of relevant organs of the party be convened to fashion out clear measures on how best to deal with issues. This, he said, would go a long way to assist the Akande peace panel to succeed.
