HOW BUHARI, APC NEC AGREED WITH OSINBAJO’S COUNSEL TO ADOPT STATE PARTY EXCOS AS CARETAKERS*

It was the intervention of the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo at yesterday’s APC National Executive Committee meeting that saved the day and produced the consensus upon which the ongoing reorganization of the party is resting, according to inside sources at the meeting.

The plan of the group of a few APC Governors working through the Buni-led National Caretaker Committee was to dismiss the State, Zonal and LGA organs and handpick their replacements. This was what they brought to the President and to NEC.

Details of the meeting shared by members of the APC NEC disclosed that just before the proposal to dissolve all the States, Zonal and local government level organs of the party, the Vice President, who is a legal luminary himself cautioned that arbitrarily dissolving those party organs would be open to legal challenges which could have a good chance of succeeding and hurting the party down the line.

According to a notable source present at the meeting “just before the proposal was tabled for final affirmation, the President yielded the floor and asked his deputy to comment, and it was then the VP, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria said that what should be done is not just to dissolve the State and LG party organs but to make the existing executives holding the reigns of those organs the new members of the caretaker committees.”

The source said the wisdom of that proposal is that it effectively neutralizes those who may have legal and legitimate grounds to challenge the dissolution since they would still be the ones effectively in charge of running the party at their different States, Zonal and other levels.

“Not only did the President saw the wisdom in the Vice President’s suggestions, the proposal became the resolution of yesterday’s NEC meeting.”

Even though members of the NEC debated the whole idea of dissolution back and forth, it was agreed by all that a more careful approach as put forward by Prof. Osinbajo would save the party from potential litigations in the near future. And the source added “this was why the VP’S suggestion was embraced and the proviso recommended by him added to the motion to dissolve the party organs.”

In fact this morning on the AIT Kakaaki Morning News Show, one of the presenters who is also the Bureau Chief of Thisday in Abuja disclosed that “it was the Vice President, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria,” that provided the suggestion that saved the day.

Eventually when the Kaduna Governor who was asked to brief the press spoke at the Aso Villa press gallery he disclosed that “NEC approved the immediate dissolution of the party’s organs at the polling unit, ward, local government, state and zonal level....as well as their immediate reconstitution and composition of the dissolved excos to serve in their respective offices in a caretaker committee capacity....”

The VP has shown countless times that he is capable of settling dispute and he is just underrated but he actually does so much.

This is because everybody knows that he's capable of solving problems and has all what it takes to be a true leader

The sagacity of the VP had never been in doubt, when most of these cut throat politicians are simply thinking of themselves playing checkers, the VP is already considering the future ramification of actions at the federal level like an astute chess player.

The Vp has proven to be a man of wisdom and relevance not just a politician but a SAN

How does this solve the problem? He only just complicated the situation. In many states there are two excos,it would've made more sense to dissolve and set up a neutral committee. Although this your speculation has not been reported in any known media.

osinbajo for president

STARBOY , Naija's next President.

Anyone with me on this ?

Obituary all da way

Okay

Only a fool would have suggested that they dissolve all party excos in all states, zones and wards. There's no way they would have recovered from the outcome.

VP has always been a sensible type thats why they'll always send him after they've spoilt things.

The grounds we gained when he was acting as the president is an indication of what he can do.

Story for the birds , you ant going anywhere

Osibanjo is wise, the way and manner he removed the DSS boss shows that he is capable to direct Nigeria and do something significant, his presidency will be of many notable achievement.

Mumu! So osinbajo doesn't know the litigation would eventually destroy the party as dissolution of excos it's an illegal action taken which will be nullified in the court.

When you register your own party, then you can run it how you like. This is how we run our party,

Kudos to Asiwaju Tinubu for giving us VP Osinbajo.... Asiwaju the greatest talent hunter....

Wisdom

The VP is ever the master Key to this administration, see it now He just prove it here as the man with great knowledge and wisdom

Interesting times ahead for Apc

That is their headache.......the only thing on my mind right now is how to make this Christmas a memorable one........and keep my family happy.......kapich.

APC should prevent any form of internal rumble. The unity in the party should remain strong. People are already joining the party and more people will still join

Have the tenure ship of the previous EXCOS ended?

See marketing strategy 2023 this country will still be in the hand of dummies what a pity Youth pele una go wait tire

While this is a wise decision that give temporary breathing room. The problem still need to be addressed. There should be a provision in the party constitution on the process for electing party officers from the ward level to the party chairman level and the key dates for each level to swear in new executives . That is the only way for eliminating dissolution of party officers and litigation

Another big headache for Osinbajo NL haters.
