In this interview with JOHN ALECHENU, the National Vice Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Hilliard Eta, speaks on the decision of the party’s National Working Committee to settle for the direct mode of primaries for the Edo governorship elections among other issuesyou take us through what led to the decision of your party to settle for the direct mode of primary for the coming Edo State governorship...
That’s exactly what I have told you. The Edo State chapter of the party had decided for direct primaries before the election of 2019. This is the conclusion of that election. This governorship election is part of that election. That election was without the governorship election, so you cannot treat them as separate elections.At all times the party recognises its state executive committee.That would depend on the pronouncement of the courts.
The former National Chairman of the APC, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun has warned against undue interference with the Edo governorship primary. What is your take? I’m not one of those who believe in that narrative and I believe our party will not allow that to happen. I do know that there are some especially within the party in my zone who are busy attempting to see whether this narrative will happen after the end of President Buhari’s tenure. I can assure you that the APC will remain long after the tenure of President Muhammadu Buhari.
With benefit of hindsight, can you tell Nigerians that your party has delivered on its promises made to them when you all fought so hard to form government in 2015?
