Zoning Is Oyegun’s, Pdp’s Idea, Says Akande by Emmalexing: 4:47pm On May 20, 2015 |
Bisi Akande, former interim chairman of the APC, has revealed the party’s stand is not in sync with zoning of political offices, a decision that has been generating uproars since the conclusion of the 2015 general election. The mega party is seen as foisting certain ranking lawmakers on the National Assembly. “It is true that sometime after the election, the National Chairman (Chief John Oyegun) wanted to toy with the idea of zoning. But as a united party, we unanimously said, ‘No,’” he told reporters before a meeting at the Protea Hotel, Ikeja, Lagos According to him, zoning of political offices has never been the position of the APC. “It is a PDP arrangement and we will not practice it. What you see with the Senate presidency is us trying to ensure there is no rancour amongst the senators. Of course, we want the best man to emerge and that is what will happen,” he said. Akande believes that zoning could spawn confusion in the APC, and the PDP could take advantage of such to take certain positions in the National Assembly. “We have been sacrificing and compromising in the interest of our nation and that is what we must continue to do,” he said.
