\n
The Director General of the Progressive Governors Forum, Salihu Moh. Lukman said it is belittling for All Progressives Congress, APC leaders to forge partnership with People\u2019s Democratic Party, PDP leaders to compel a decision on the choice of the next leadership of the country.<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n
The PGF DG also said he is worried about the excessive politicisation of insecurity by the PDP and their supporters hence the call for both the\u00a0 APC and the Federal Government to evolve new strategies of problem-solving communication in the country.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Part of the strategies according to Lukman should be to facilitate partnership to communicate activities of the party, government through engagement with major national players \u2013 non-governmental actors, civil society, labour, tranditional and religious leaders, women, youths, persons with disability, etc.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In a statement titled ‘APC and Struggle for New Nigeria’ on Sunday, the PGF DG said part the challenge of excessive politicisation is that it also threatens internal unity of APC members and leaders.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“For instance, excessive politicisation in the country is influencing decision of some APC leaders to push negotiation for the emergence of the party\u2019s Presidential Candidate for 2023 elections outside the structures of the APC. This is now threatening the unity of leaders of APC.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Around the whole question of power shift, some leaders of the APC have gone outside the structures of the party to mobilise support for the party to zone its Presidential candidate for 2023 to the Southern part of the country. In a worrisome way, loose partnership is being contracted with a section of leaders from other opposition political parties, notably PDP.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“It is important that all APC leaders are reminded that the campaign for power shift is about writing or respecting the rules of our party. This should be handled within the structures of the APC. It is belittling for APC leaders who are statutory members of all the relevant structures of the party that are competent to take final decision on the matter to go outside the structures of the party and forge partnership with PDP leaders to compel a decision, one way or the other, on the matter. It simply means loss of confidence on the structures of the party, which in this matter couldn\u2019t have been the case. It is therefore important that a strong appeal is made to all APC leaders to develop more confidence to negotiate every matter, including the issue of power shift, within the structures of APC.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“The current trend, which appears to create divisions among APC leaders must be halted. Question of unity among APC leaders is a fundamental precondition for being able to continue to win the support of Nigerians, which is what can guarantee any electoral victory. In fact, the confidence of PDP and their supporters is only stronger in campaigning against APC and President Buhari\u2019s led Federal Government, using false narrative of failure, because unity among the ranks of APC leaders and member is increasingly being broken. Even the reality of reactive and passive communication of APC led government initiatives is further becoming a dominant attribute because unity among APC leaders is getting weaker.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“All APC members must strongly appeal to all APC leaders to rebuild confidence and ensure that every issue that should be addressed within the structures of the party are treated so. Perhaps, also in relation to the question of unity of leaders within the party, all governments produced by the party should be able to strengthen internal relations. Internal consultative processes should be functionally made stronger such that disputes between governments are well managed, negotiated and any possible agreement respected. The recent partnership between Lagos and Rivers States in relation to the legal dispute on Value Added Tax against the Federal Government is to say the least very disturbing. All party members and leaders should without prejudice to the grievances of Lagos State Government appeal to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to initiate processes of direct engagement with the Federal Government to resolve all issues.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“It is politically scandalous for APC state to sue APC Federal Government. Everything taken together \u2013 mobilising for power shift outside APC and the legal case between Lagos State and Federal Government \u2013 require that our leaders should be open to themselves. Beyond being open, APC leaders should have both discipline and respect for each other. Unity of leaders will be meaningless, if not impossible, without discipline and respect for one another. In fact, leaders will be unable to unite party members and Nigerians if they don\u2019t have the required discipline and respect for one another. It is not by accident that public debate in Nigeria is very offensive. Citizens treat each other with disrespect and easily abuse each other in unprintable languages. This may perhaps be the true reflection of the quality of relationship among leaders.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“The APC Caretaker and Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee need to take up the issue of uniting all APC leaders and ensure that relevant structures of the party are being used to facilitate negotiation on all emerging issues, including the question of power shift. All leaders of the party should be reminded that the fundamental issue of changing Nigeria will remain a dream so long as leaders failed to work for the development of the structures of the party. Building a party is beyond winning election, important as it is. Building the party is specifically about ensuring that structures of the party are competent and capable of facilitating negotiations among members and leaders on every issue. Every negotiation should produce an agreement which must be respected by every leader and member.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“At this point, it is also important to appeal to the APC Caretaker Committee to conclude the work being done to amend the constitution of the party. Strengthening processes of disciplinary hearing and enforcement of decisions should be prioritised. Capacity of the party to regulate the conduct of members and leaders should be strengthened. Being a party envisioned to bring about change, regulating the conduct of party members and leaders will be an important catalysing factor to change Nigerian politics and produce the new Nigeria of our dream. The quality of any democracy is defined by the strength of political parties. Once political parties are irrelevant to the processes of regulating conducts of leaders, leaders are not united, disciplined and respect one another, democracy will be meaningless unresponsive and nonrepresentative, and cannot meet the expectations of citizens.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“For APC to achieve the goal of producing a new Nigeria, first thing first, it must be a party with a leadership that is united, disciplined, and respectful. The process of re-organising the structures of APC must make the party functionally active in facilitating negotiations among leaders at all levels and all agreements reached must be respected by all. It is the process of negotiation and implementing agreements reached, which should be respected by all that can produce a New Nigeria!”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Lukman emphasized that the goal of partnership is to generate public awareness around initiatives of governments, especially Federal Government towards ending insecurity in Nigeria.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“There should be regular consultations to engage Nigerians aimed at reviewing progress being made to address national challenges. In the context of consultative activities with major national players, initiatives to rebuild, re-orient organisations of civil society and labour movement can be developed based on a strategy to ensure that civil society and labour leaders, for instance, directly supervise and coordinate initiatives.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
“At the same time, appropriate steps can be taken to ensure that Nigerians appreciate all the unprecedented investments in military hardware: dozens of new aircraft, ships, battle tanks and others being procured and deployed in the fight against insecurity in the country by the APC led Federal Government. Initiatives under the new Police Act to provide Community Policing can be similarly appreciated by Nigerians, as well as establishment of the Police Trust Fund to finance training, logistics and welfare of Nigeria Police and investment in technology-aided policing of land and maritime environments.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Lukman said through problem-solving communication strategy, Nigerians will be able to see through all the false propaganda of the PDP and their supporters and accordingly recognise all the successes being recorded in the fight against insecurity in the country.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“For instance, President Buhari himself, in the October 1, 2021, national address, highlighted that \u2018In the North East region alone, over eight thousand Boko Haram terrorists have surrendered.\u2019 In addition, \u2018the Nigerian Armed Forces have recruited over 17,000 personnel across all ranks.\u2019 Similarly, as contained in the October 1, 2021 broadcast of President Buhari, approval has been given to \u2018the Nigerian Police Force to recruit 10,000 police officers annually over the next six years.\u2019<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“While it is important that Nigerians apply every necessary pressure on government and the APC to expeditiously address the problem of insecurity in the country, efforts must also be made to prevent a situation whereby desperate politicians seek to take advantage of Nigeria\u2019s security challenges based on false propaganda.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“In all promises APC made in 2015, there are initiatives being implement by the Federal Government, which include developing Nigeria\u2019s infrastructure, in Rail, Roads, Ports, Power are ongoing; achieving agricultural self-sufficiency; entrenching technology in government processes and service delivery; creating the first truly national social safety net in the history of Nigeria; among many others.”<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
