Dr Abdullahi Ganduje, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), says his purported suspension from the party, by individuals masquerading as executives of his ward, is just like an African drama.<\/p>\n
\nGanduje said this when he received members of Forum of States APC Chairmen in Abuja on Tuesday.<\/div>\n
\n\u201cThis is African drama, and it is not leading political parties to anywhere, there is no doubt that what happened was a distraction but we assure you that our party cannot be distracted or diverted.<\/div>\n
\n\u201cWe are focused, we know where we are heading to, we know our objectives and we know how to achieve them.<\/div>\n
\n\u201cThat is why we have the President, more governors, and more senators in our party, and more are coming into our fold,\u201d he said.<\/div>\n
\nHe charged the state chairmen to remain focused, saying the party under his leadership had introduced innovations to make it a strong institution.<\/div>\n
\nEarlier, Mr Alphonsus Okadigbo, the Secretary of the Forum of APC State Chairmen, said the visit was to identify with Ganduje and to affirm their support for him.<\/div>\n
\n\u201cWe are here to show loyalty and solidarity to your leadership and the party\u2019s National Working Committee (NWC) and to tell members of the public that we are solidly behind you.<\/div>\n
\n\u201cWe are sure that you are on course on the steps you have taken to reposition our party and to take it to greater heights,\u201d he said.<\/div>\n
\nHe added that the chairmen would be delighted if they were given a formal meeting day where they could discuss their perspective on how to grow and make the party better.<\/div>\n
\nAlso speaking, Mr Cornelius Ojelabi, the Lagos State APC Chairman and the forum\u2019s Acting chairman, described the purported suspension of Ganduje as unfortunate.<\/div>\n
\nHe said the party\u2019s state chairmen were saddened by the development, adding that such should not be encouraged in the party, because there were Constitutional provisions before such decisions could be taken.<\/div>\n
\n\u201cAlthough the coup has failed, we want to assure you that we are\u00a0 behind you, we pray that the good Lord will give you the wisdom, knowledge and understanding to continue to lead us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
