Impunity By The Nwc Of Apc by gentlejpm(m): 10:41am On Feb 16, 2016 |
An All Progressives Congress (APC)
chieftain in Adamawa state, Alhaji
Ahmad Lawal has cautioned the
National working committee (NWC)
of the party of an impending looming
danger that awaits the party in the
state as a result of imposing an
acting state chairman to head the
affairs of the state’s party.
Ahmad who is the state Organising
Secretary is worried over the possible
breakup of the party in the state over
what he called negligent of members’
constitutional rights to select a
leader of their choice.
He accused the APC NWC of super
imposing one Ibrahim Bilal a LGA
chairman of the party from Michika
who the State working Committee
(SWC) has not been consulted only
to hear the plan of his swearing in.
“I don’t think our officials at the
National level are doing the right
thing and in the interest of our good
party, they do not consult us for
anything or for any reason at the
state level for putting an acting
chairman of our party in the state, we
can as well say that he cannot call
us for any official meetings or we
can decline any of his invitations for
any party meetings, “. Ahmad said
“You would recalled that imposition
is one of the things that led to the
breakdown of PDP in Nigeria, today
PDP became an opposition party in
the seat power, it’s imposition and
lack of strong adherent to
constitutional rights of party
members that destroyed the party
bringing APC on board, the party
many believe is for the down trodden
and for common people, I see that
problem trying to befall the good
people of Adamawa, APC our party is
a party of equal right and justice to
all and sundry as such our Leaders
should not forget that.” He added
He also said that:” I can’t imagine
our National leaders will just bring
somebody from Local Government
level and without consulting the SWC
and to tell us over night he is the
acting Chairman of APC party in the
state, at least we have our
constitution and in article 17 of the
constitution is talking of Congresses,
fielding of candidates if there is any
vacant positions and elections, it
does not talk of imposition but talks
of consensus”.
He further complained that NCW
faulted article 17 of the Party’s
constitution by imposing Ibrahim
Bilal who is not a Member of SWC
and was not even a consensus
candidate that he can become an
acting chairman of the party in the
state. |
