ABUJA – The All Progressives Congress APC has explained its confusion in the face of clamour by some Nigerians for a restructuring of the country, saying it does not understand what such people mean by that. Consequently, the party has set up a committee to come up with the party’s own definition of restructuring.

APC said the committee which is headed by the Governor of Kaduna state, Nasir el-Rufa’i is not to come up with modalities for restructuring the country but to merely define the concept as it does not understand the meaning of the concept as being bandied about by some Nigerians. “We just finished the meeting with our governors and we considered a number of issues. They include the issue of restructuring, national convention of the party and that these regular meetings would be expanded to include principal officers of the national assembly from now on”, said the party spokesman, Bolaji Abdullahi.

The party spokesperson spoke Thursday in Abuja shortly after a meeting of its National Working Committee NWC and its 24 state governors. Flanked by the Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum, Abubakar Yari of Zamfara state, Simon Lalong of Plateau and Yahaya Bello of Kogi, Abdullahi said; “When we talk about a committee on restructuring, what we are talking about is a committee that will articulate what APC means by restructuring because we have realised that over a couple of days now or weeks, when people use the word restructuring we don’t know if we are talking about the same thing and people have gone about saying APC promised restructuring.

“So we really need to sit down to develop a shared understanding of what we mean by restructuring in our manifesto. So this committee that is setup that will now be chaired by the governor of Kaduna is mainly to define what APC means by restructuring, so that every member will know what we exactly mean”.

Other members of the 9-member committee are governors of Osun State, Rauf Aregbesola, Kano, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, Plateau, Simon Lalong, Ogun, Ibikunle Amosun and a former Governor of Edo State, Prof. Oserheimen Osunbor. Others are APC National Organising Secretary, Sen. Osita Izunaso, National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi and Sen. Olubunmi Adetunmbi who would serve as secretary.

APC had on several occasions denied promising to restructure the country, explaining that it only promised ‘devolution of powers’ as well as ‘true federalism’. The party had also recently said it could not deliver on this first item on its manifesto, saying in light of the economic situation in the country, its major priority was putting food on the table of Nigerians.

No, but that is our official language and it is expected that Nigerian graduates should be able to use it with acceptable level of understanding.

Because the msg was delivered by a product of merit educational system as opposed to the quota system, right?
Then what do these products of merit educational system actually mean by "illiterates" whenever they describe products of quota systems?

Una go understand when there's no other option than balkanization of the zoo

Restructuring was written in APC party manifesto but now they got elected they don't know what it means.

This constant hypocrisy by Nigerian politicians is why people are supporting Mazi Nnamdi Kanu election boycott.

It doesn't matter what party it is. They lack principles and Nnamdi Kanu pointed out that is the biggest problem of these political prostitudes.

Look at tinubu that used preach sovereign national conference in the 90s.

None of your biz

Never said it was. I guess you're just one of those that are more interested in having e fights. Don't worry your kids will get to this point and experience same problem with Nigeria since you're indifferent.

Already taking it as your biz and I insist, it is none of yours.

He is more interested in having e-fights he probably has no clue what restructuring is.

Yes, I don't have clue on the whole concept, are you now satisfied?

nextprince:

I don't feel satisfied but pity. It's still none of my biz tho

eph12:

I don't feel satisfied but pity. It's still none of my biz tho

You FEEL pity, yet none of your biz.

Very logical.

I think by 2019 APC will surely understand what the Restructuring means. The first question they should ask themselves is that are they ruling us on Federal system of Govt. or Unity. If they truly understand the deference within Federal system and Unity of Govt. they will know what Nigeria mean by Restructuring. Awon were gbogbo.

Is there anything you (APC) even understand at all?
