APC was a mistake...former Chairman Oyegun by kenben(op):
Former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief John Odigie Oyegun, on Friday admitted that the coalition that birthed the party against the 2015 general elections was a mistake, stating however that that would not deter him and others from setting a new political order in the country.

Chief Oyegun, who spoke when he hosted stakeholders of the coalition opposition party, the African Democratic Congress (ADC), in his Benin home, said that the mistakes of the past notwithstanding, the imperative thing was to those who fell before to rise and ensure they did not fall again.

The first executive governor of Edo State added that he aligned with the apology tendered by the former governor of the state, Professor Osarhiemen Osunbor on the mistake of the 2013 APC coalition.

Oyegun said that while he joined others to chase away “a government we called clueless”, the government that took over became indescribable.

“The story of success in life does not matter how much you fall. You heard the apology made by Professor Osunbor. We accept our failings. We removed a clueless government, and I don’t have a word for what we replaced it with. We are back to the struggle. We know what we are doing, and it will not fail.” Chief Oyegun intoned.

On the stakeholders’ holders meeting, he explained that the meeting was called to set up a committee for membership registration and membership revalidation in the state.

The Committee, Chief Oyegun stated, was to work with the party’s state coalition in the state to ensure a rancour free process, adding that the membership registration and revalidation was to ensure the message of the coalition gets to every corner of this state in cooperation with the incumbent executive.

This was just as he disclosed that the ADC had received other groups from the Social Democratic Party.

“I think the message has gotten home very largely. The entire state will convulse at the mentioning of the ADC. One of the Committee will work with the State Working Committee in a way that is effective and convenient to the ordinary citizen of Edo State.” Oyegun stated.

Also speaking with journalists after the meeting, Professor Osunbor said Nigerians were not happy with the way the country was being governed.

Osunbor noted that the coalition was formed by all concerned Nigerians across political parties “to ensure that multi-party democracy exist in the country.”, as the present situation tilted towards totalitarianism.

Meaning all members of the APC should apologize for wrecking the nation to the abysmal state they have dragged it into. Nevertheless, don't ever trust these kinds of volte face political turncoat charlatans.

You already did called him paper weight Politician, As a party National chairman, he nearly destroyed the internal democratic process of the party.
A party chairman that was unable to win his poling until, ward and Local Governments is that not a Suegbe National Party Chairman.
