Carrying The Founding Fathers Along Is The Way Forward For The APC by IniAkpanMorgan(m): 3:51pm On Feb 22, 2021
It is appreciated how the APC governors have rescued the party from the clear misrule and inarticulation of the former NWC of the party, especially as Comrade Adams Oshiomhole took that power blocs in the party for granted. So I commend the APC Gjovernors for taking that bold step to rescue the party from the stringent, undemocratic hold of the former National Chairman.

It is said that those who pay the piper dictate the tunes: however, in politics and in partisan political matters, this cannot apply, otherwise the present tamed-down animosity between Governor Nyesom Wike and his protege National Chairman of the main opposition PDP, "Total Chair" Uche Secondus, would not have arisen.

So it is important for leaders to understand how, in the fame of personal and collective interest, and where personal interest seems as almighty to collective interest, it becomes severe cataracts on the eyes of any leader who imposes his personal interest on others, against allowing leadership emerge through the decision of the people.

Members of the ruling APC have been variously assured by the present leadership of the party put in place by the resolution of the NEC to produce the executing structure to administer the party onto producing the next Presidential election in Nigeria of their voice in matters affecting the party. This must be seen to be actualised.

And in the appreciation of the APC governors, in how the National Caretaker Committee members of the party were painstakingly nominated and assigned, it is this opinion's advice to ask the governors to be wary of the instinct to dictate their personal interests to the party based on personal political goals. They are resist-able.

Governor Nyesom Wike's contemplation of imposing Chairman Uche Secondus on his party to assume automatic control over his it has backfired. The present war of attrition in the PDP stems from the differences between the godfather and his godson. I pray that other politicians would embrace this truth to avoid the its pitfalls. This has necessitated this call to the APC Governors to resist any urge to control the working if the APC. Itbwill be resisted.

What is happening in the PDP will not happen in the APC if the necessary watches are viewed from the towers of truth. Unlike the collapsing influence of the one man rule of a governor over the PDP, in the APC, there is a collegiate attempt by the power bloc exerted by the governors to give the party a direction.

As laudable as the collegiate arrangement of power delegation, contributed to stabilise the party, the college of governors must avoid dictating their interest to the leadership of the party. It is clearly noted how the political influence of the PDP began to wear-out when the party governors and the structure they instituted the denouncement of the interests of the founding fathers of the party.

Every constitution has its body and its spirit. The APC's constitution also possesses its body and its spirit: it contains a body of letters and the spirit that rules the laws it carries towards good governance. No one can truly work with the body of a constitution to achieve good governance when its rule towards good governance is trampled under foot.

It is also appropriate to know that the spirit of every constitution is afforded by those who won the vision of creating the body, and pursued the mission revealed in it to success. If founding fathers are therefore cut off, the vision of the party is also cut off, when the vision is cut off, an abuse of the spirit of the constitution manifest, and this is where I care to advice that the APC governors ought to help the party to remain enbloc now that they seem to dictate the tunes.

Asking them therefore to allow the structure they have accepted to work with, and providing necessary assistance in aid our repair as a party, the governors ought to allow this leadership a free hand to control and direct the affairs of the party, in collaboration with the founding fathers. The recent attack on the registration and revalidation exercise of party members was a call out by some founders of the party to a seeming sectional hijack of activities of the party...

Do you mean the same Founding father's that should be tied to a stake and shot by firing squad for looting this country dry..?
Founding fathers that laid the foundation of corruption and tribalism..?

Instead of carrying the poor masses along, you're interested in founding fathers..No wonder you guys as a party are in the business of appointing dead persons into political offices..
