The Catholic Bishop of Yola Diocese, Dr. Stephen Mamza, on Sunday advised President-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, to consider only founding members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for appointment in his cabinet.

In his sermon at St. Augustine’s Catholic Church Bekaji, Yola, Mamza warned that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would sabotage Buhari’s government if they get appointments and could compromise his intending hard works towards a better Nigeria.

He said: “My special advice to the President-elect is that he should not give appointment to anyone that is less than three years in APC.

“This will help him to build a government that is based on the APC agenda, but if he makes the mistake of mixing his government with the PDP members who are in APC for appointments, he would disappoint those that elected him.

“If these PDP members that are running to APC are principled people, and they love democracy, they will remain in PDP and rebrand the party for the next elections. But rushing to APC confirmed that they are only in politics for their selfish interest and not for the development of the country”.

According to him, PDP members betrayed their party by defecting, describing it as “a sign of what they may do to the APC.

“I respect those PDP members that are still in PDP, they are the true democrat of this country”.

Eg??

Him no dull na

He knows already

When they were defecting from other political parties to the APC what were you guys thinking? Do you think their defection is based on a sound idealogy? There defection is based on how much they can get from the system.
So the appointment must go round.!!! What is good for APC member, is also good for a defector!

My special advice to the president elect is that he should not give appointment to anyone that is less than three years in APC.

Amaechi joined APC, Nov 2013. He is less than three years in APC. Therefore no role for him, huh?

I'd want to believe the defectors here are not the ones who have done so in the past but those who did on the ground that the APC won the Presidential election. Amaechi has been a thorn in Jonathan's flesh ever since he defected and he's one of those who brought the outgoing president down.

How many votes did he get for Buhari in Rivers state?

1. We both know Rivers was massively rigged for the PDP and Jonathan, all thanks to the First Lady and Wike.
2. It was not about the votes, it never was.

The SS from which Jonathan and Amaechi hail is considered a PDP fortress, save Edo state. Regardless, the rift between Amaechi, Jang and Jonathan caused some section of PDP governors to form the defunct nPDP before some of them permanently moved to the APC.
