Despite the prolonged absence of
President Muhammadu Buhari, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has expressed
satisfaction that the ship of the nation was sailing in the right direction.
This, it believed was due to the
fact that the president handed over the reins of governance to a competent team
led by Acting President Yemi Osinbajo.
The APC National Chairman Chief
John Odigie-Oyegun, who spoke yesterday at the national secretariat of the
party during a meeting of the National Working Committee (NWC) with the
Progressives Governors Forum (PGF), however, accused the social media of plot
to destabilise the polity through various negative reports.
The NWC meeting with APC
serving governors, according to him was part of the ongoing consultations with
critical stakeholders of the party, ahead of its mid-tem national convention
scheduled for April 29.
Chief Oyegun said: “What makes me happy in spite of these negative
speculations and attempt to destabilize the polity is that, thanks to his
respect for due process and the constitution of this nation has left a
structure that is functioning very effectively.”
He lamented the growing negative narrative about the party’s
performance. He charged a governor to device means to salvage the situation.
The meeting agreed on April 29 date for the convention, which is non-elective.
