So because going by the current discuss in the<br \/>\npolitical circle in Nigeria, the ruling party is at best in tarter or<br \/>\ndisarray. There seem to be no one at the helm of affairs again. Tinubu the<br \/>\nJagaban of Lagos and APC National leader is sulking, Lai Muhammed is<br \/>\ndazed, and the party chairman has compounded issues. How can all these be<br \/>\nreconciled so the party can move on?<br \/>\nThis is the price being paid for inconsistency.<br \/>\nFrom the first intake of defecting PDP members to APC, I sounded a serious<br \/>\nnote of warning to the party that they were in for a shocker and advised<br \/>\nthat APC is better alone with her undiluted members. For me, it didn&#8217;t<br \/>\nmatter if they remained in opposition but with men of integrity which<br \/>\nwould have won them more sympathy and followers in the long run, but<br \/>\nhaving a mixed bag would produce very venomous snakes. There is an adage<br \/>\nin my place which is better understood in Pidgin English that says &#8220;e fine<br \/>\nnor de for snake pipkin&#8221;. Translated, it means that no matter what, a<br \/>\nsmall snake is as dangerous as the mother- catch word avoid it by all<br \/>\nmeans and at all times.<br \/>\nThere is no rule that everyone should be in politics or belong to one<br \/>\npolitical party. For one, I am not interested and am very vocal about it.<br \/>\nGiven all the money in the treasury of any political party, I still will<br \/>\nnot budge.<\/p>\n<p>APC says through its Commander general for Information Alhaji Lai Mohammed<br \/>\n&#8220;&#8230; decried a situation in which some people, based on nothing but<br \/>\ninordinate ambition and lack of discipline and loyalty, will enter into an<br \/>\nunholy alliance with the very same people whom the party and indeed the<br \/>\nentire country worked hard to replace and sell out the hard won victory of<br \/>\nthe party. There can be no higher level of treachery, disloyalty and<br \/>\ninsincerity within any part.&#8221; Hum! Hear him again on Tinubu\u2019s sponsorship<br \/>\nof Tambuwal to undo PDP in 2011. The question to ask here is this does the<br \/>\nAPC have primary democracy? If yes, why did the party field multiple<br \/>\npresidential candidates at their primary and choose to arm twist every<br \/>\nmember in picking the National Assembly leadership? I am surprised at the<br \/>\nviews of the respected Prof. Itse Sagay (SAN) whose opinion is that the<br \/>\npresident ought not to have recognized Saraki and Dogara and called it<br \/>\nimmoral because more than 50 members of the Senate were not there in the<br \/>\nchamber on that day! &#8220;It is not only an act of gross impunity which<br \/>\nSenator Saraki has brought from the PDP but he has now demonstrated it in<br \/>\nthe senate. It is an illegal act because there is no way a Senate can be<br \/>\nformally inaugurated without all the members being present &#8211; provided they<br \/>\nwant to be present&#8221; did our very knowledgeable Prof come from the moon<br \/>\nthat day? What did Order 10 of the Constitution\/Assembly rule say on this<br \/>\nmatter? &#8211; That only one third members of the senate ie 38 Senator need be<br \/>\npresent! How illegal was this? We&#8217;re the senators served the necessary<br \/>\nnotices as is customary and for a fixed time and date? Why would the party<br \/>\n(uncertain of its position) fix such a crucial meeting same day of the<br \/>\nelection at 9:00am (just an hour difference to the election) at a<br \/>\ndifferent venue? Were they suggesting that having won the election and<br \/>\nbeing in the majority, the party is now bigger than the country? Did the<br \/>\naffected senators send apologies and\/or request for postponement?\u00a0 Why has<br \/>\nthe Clerk of the house not been queried if he was in the wrong?<\/p>\n<p>The challenges posed to the APC today was the PDP&#8217;s experience on<br \/>\nTambuwal&#8217;s exploit in 2011. See how the same Tambuwal, for personal future<br \/>\nambition ditched both the party APC and his illegal sponsor Tiunbu?<br \/>\nDid somebody hear Obasanjo warning President Muhamadu Buhari to be<br \/>\ncautious of Tinubu? I am really very sorry for APC.<br \/>\nThe feudal lord of APC has been defeated and so are his stooges. Hail the<br \/>\ncommon man in the street! Look irrespective of what become the outcome of<br \/>\nall the nocturnal meetings of each caucus, the die is cast already. Saraki<br \/>\nand Dogara would hold on to their edge knowing that failing to do so would<br \/>\nsweep them out of office in less than no time. The South West caucus on<br \/>\nthe other hand, if they choose to remain the stooges of their feudal lord<br \/>\nwould remain suspicious of other movements.<\/p>\n<p>To lead us out of the eventual consequences of the current debacle, we<br \/>\nmust go back to history, study and see what happened in the first<br \/>\nrepublic. The NCNC&#8217; Zik in the Western House of Assembly, Eyo Ita in the<br \/>\nEastern flank, Action Group against Tafawa Balewa and the war of Chief<br \/>\nSamuel Ladoke Akintola on a coalition government. A reading on these<br \/>\npersonalities including Chief Michael Okpara, Joseph Tarka Ahmadu Bello<br \/>\namong others shows that history is just repeating itself. These were<br \/>\nregular occurrence during the first republic. The eventual consequences<br \/>\nwas the civil war and eventual military involvement in politics which<br \/>\nfinally brought us back to where we are today. Must we be learning new<br \/>\nnegativities every election year?<br \/>\nThe Feudal lord of APC was simply defeated in his own plot\/game. I<br \/>\nexpected the party members to be shouting free at last but even now most<br \/>\nof the South West members are in secret jubilation afraid of the Octopus!<br \/>\nWhat a pity.<\/p>\n<p>It must be immediately understood that the current internal bickering has<br \/>\nnothing to do with President Buhari who has made his point clear from<br \/>\ninception. He told everyone who cared to listen that &#8220;\u2026I belong to<br \/>\neverybody, I belong to nobody&#8221;. This he has demonstrated first by ignoring<br \/>\nall parties in the hoolabaluu by maintain a single mindset raising the<br \/>\nfear in the heart of almost every APC leader. Jagaban and his associates<br \/>\nought to have praised him for this instead of the displayed hostility.<br \/>\nImagine a Lai Muhammed telling the world that Tinubu, not Buhari is their<br \/>\nleader. This is one of the most unguarded statement of Lai. Let\u2019s see if<br \/>\nawards of juicy contracts will come from the way of Tinubu or Buhari in<br \/>\nthe next four years.<\/p>\n<p>At the home front, supremacy war is on already. Former Vice President<br \/>\nAtiku Abubarkar has raised the bars in the game he knows best.\u00a0 Atiku is<br \/>\nof the Peoples\u2019 Democratic Movement (PDM) and PDP extraction. Given his<br \/>\npainful exit from the PDP twice, his flirting with ACN under Jagaban<br \/>\nTinubu before now, he is certain who the enemies are and when to sting. It<br \/>\nwould be unnecessary to go to the records to reproduce statements made by<br \/>\nthese politicians against themselves in their earlier political campaigns<br \/>\nbetween 1999 and now. Listening or reading Tinubu, Lai, Atiku, Obasanjo<br \/>\nand Buhari making a mincemeat of\u00a0 themselves on pages of newspapers and<br \/>\ntelevision screens, and seeing them all together gathered ostensibly to<br \/>\nsave Nigeria at Obasanjo&#8217;s home leaves us wondering. Can this house really<br \/>\nstand?<\/p>\n<p>At the formative stage of APC, I thought that the founders had considered<br \/>\nserious prerequisite for membership but they started failing. Former<br \/>\nGovernor Balarabe Musa was right when he said in an interview that neither<br \/>\nthe PDP nor the APC is good for the country as both of them are one and<br \/>\nthe same group of people. Right now, even the staunchest members of the<br \/>\nAPC cannot beat their chest about the views and expectations of the party<br \/>\neven at Central Working Committee level because loyalty is gradually<br \/>\nfading away.<\/p>\n<p>Back to the realities on ground. It please my sense of humor that the<br \/>\npowers that be are beginning to come out of the dull drum and they better<br \/>\nbe fast. Unanimity alone will win the day. See the way the party has been<br \/>\npolarized even by immediate past beneficiary Tambuwal.<br \/>\nIf all are not settled soon enough, it will be seen that the party is<br \/>\nliving true to its negative acronym Aggrieved People&#8217;s Congress (APC) this<br \/>\nwill be a bad omen for the taunted victory of the party.<br \/>\nAs I write, visitors from the British parliament have paid homage to the<br \/>\nSenate President assuring him of support. This has jolted the leadership<br \/>\nof APC forcing them to swallow their pride and forcing the party to accept<br \/>\nthe verdict of the election and so endorsing Saraki and Dogara as the<br \/>\nPresident and Speaker of the Senate and the House of Rep respectively.<br \/>\nGood. The saying goes that we should say nothing when we are angry. But<br \/>\ngiven that we have an unforgiving spirit which rules among the leadership<br \/>\nof the party what are the expectations of the members? From my obscure<br \/>\ncorner, I can foresee danger. Yes, Tinubu still own Lagos as he pleases,<br \/>\nbut his wild dream to dominate Nigeria has been effectively quashed.<br \/>\nSomehow, the secret things have been made public now and it is good for<br \/>\nthe betterment of the country as we now know the desires of most of them<br \/>\neither in the PDP or APC. All these confirms that between the APC members<br \/>\nand the Jagaban of Lagos the permanent feature is treachery, deceit and<br \/>\ninconsistency and they will deal treacherously among themselves in the<br \/>\ncoming days, weeks and months.<br \/>\nAs things stand now, the insinuations from every quarter that the black<br \/>\nsheep in the party would be punished with serious sanction has been seen<br \/>\nas unpopular and is temporarily dropped. But irrespective of which side if<br \/>\nthe divide they all belong, one thing is certain \u2013 greater CHANGE among<br \/>\nthe change agents. There will be alignments and realignments among the<br \/>\nmembers and loyalists. Whichever way they may go, it is foregone that<br \/>\nSaraki\/Dogara team will never be accepted wholeheartedly to the Tinubu<br \/>\nfold. This polarization will lead to clipping the power, influence and<br \/>\ngradually pushing to obscurity, the man Jagaban of Lagos. Oh my God!<br \/>\nFormer Vice President Atiku Abubarkar is not just watching! This is a<br \/>\ntopic for another day.<br \/>\nThe struggle continues. God bless Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Akpati is a Public Affairs Analyst based in Port Harcourt<\/p>\n<p>Mike Ossai Akpati<br \/>\nGod Is All Sufficient<br \/>\n08036757067<br \/>\n08070600454<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>0803-675-7067 akpatiom@yahoo.com It looks like I was in a hurry the other day when I posted an article \u201cTHE SENATE, APC, JAGABAN and TORTOISE SENSE\u201d on the current scenario in&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":38543,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-39648","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-articles-opinions"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>APC Jagaban &amp;
