APC PARTY LEADERS WHO WILL LEAVE THE PARTY SOON

An interview with Chief Jackson Lekan Ojo, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), National Coordinator of the Yoruba Youth Alliance (YYA) and member of the American Society of Industrial Security (ASIS), by CHIBUZO UKAIBE of Leadership Newspaper, he spoke on some pressing national issues ranging from speculations around the emergence of a new political party, the state of the economy and Niger Delta situation. He also revealed some top notch party leaders who will decamp the party come 2019 elections.

Bola Tinubu and Atiku Abubakar are the two major political giants we have today in Nigeria and they are the engine room of the ruling party, the APC. By the time their views and pieces of advice are no longer welcomed in the party they co-founded, it means the key to the exit door has been given to them. But on a more serious note, if Tinubu and Atiku desert APC as a political party today, the multiplier effect of their exit will leave the party virtually empty. They are not truly involved in this government. How many nominees do they have in the pseudo-cabinet of this government or how many board members and chairmen are their nominees? This government wouldn’t have been in place if the ideas and views of these two men were ignored during the formation of the consortium called APC. They contributed energies, finances and it was their political dexterity that brought about the present administration of Buhari.


But it is crystal clear that the two leaders may form alliance with an existing political party and they will coast home to victory in 2019. The political structure, especially in the presidency, mainly in the Northern Nigeria, may have been hijacked by some political jobbers. If President Buhari does not wade to this building imbroglio in the APC, it may not help this administration as a lot of people will work against his government. President Buhari should call all the leaders in the party and listen to them and let them suggest to him what should be done to rebuild a better Nigeria. Buhari as an individual mean well for this country. I recommend the sack of most of his ministers and for the party to be allowed to have contribution in the formation of a new and better cabinet.
