APC Is Collapsing With No Leader In Charge –Progressives Gov Forum DG
The director- general of the Progressives Governors Forum, Salihu Lukman, has decried the worsening state of affairs in the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
He said it was no longer news that the party was in crisis but that the party “is collapsing with no leader in charge.”
The crisis in APC has worsened after the appeal court ruling upholding the suspension of Adams Oshiomhole as the party’s national chairman early this week.
Currently, two members are laying claim to the leadership position of the party, Abiola Ajimobi, a former Oyo State governor and Victor Giadom, a deputy national secretary of the APC, who declared himself as the party’s acting national chairman on Wednesday.
While Ajimobi remained unavailable, supposedly due to ill health, the APC National Working Committee (NWC) loyal to him, on Wednesday appointed Hilliard Eta, the party’s vice-chairman South-South, to act as chairman pending when Ajimobi shows up.
However, worried by the situation the party has found itself, Lukman in a statement on Thursday said what the party needed now was “organ transplant”.
Noting that there was need to replace members of the NWC, who he said, constituted a problem to the party, Lukman added that it was necessary for the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the party to meet over the leadership crisis.
