Although some chieftains of the All
Progressives Congress, APC have
initiated moves to reconcile the
aggrieved camps and bring back peace
in the party, its national leader,
Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is not yielding to
it until his conditions are met.
Vanguard exclusively gathered
yesterday that Tinubu who felt greatly
slighted by the elections of Senator
Bukola Saraki and Rep. Yakubu Dogara
as the senate president and the
Speaker, House of Representatives
respectively against the party’s official
candidates, Senator Ahmed Lawan and
Femi Gbajabimila had said of what can
assuage his anger and that of the
party.

A competent party source told
Vanguard in Abuja that principal
among the conditions is that both
Saraki and Dogara must tender and
publish a full page apology publicly
using the national dailies.
To this end, the source hinted that an
extended meeting of the national
leaders of the party with APC
governors involved had been slated for
next week.

The meeting, it was learnt, would hold
either Monday or Tuesday.
“You don’t joke with the man
(Tinubu). He said they must make a
public apology to him using the
newspapers. A meeting that will
involve all APC governors has been
scheduled to hold either on Monday
or Tuesday. Wait and see what will
happen. They have to do it”, the
source said.

It was not ascertained whether
president Mohmmadu Buhari
would be at the meeting but Saraki
and Dogara are expected to be at
the meeting.

It will be recalled that after the
National Assembly leadership that
brought Saraki and Dogara as the
new leaders of the 8th assembly,
tempers have continued to flare up
in the party.

Upon their elections on June 9, APC
immediately issued a statement where
it declared the outcome of the
elections unacceptable and also
threatened sanctions for the new
leaders.

The threat however divided the party
with some of the national leaders
frowning at the decision.

One of the them was the deputy
national publicity secretary, comrade
Timi Frank who also called for the
resignation of the party’s national
chairman, chief John Oyegun on the
grounds of his failure to harmonize the
variegated interests that later cost the
party the office of the Deputy Senate
President, DSP.

According to Frank, Oyegun
compromised to have agreed to
conduct the mock election that threw
up Lawan and Gbajabimila as official
candidates of the party.

Meanwhile, national chairman of the
party, Oyegun has assured Nigerians
that peace was underway in the party.
Rising from the meeting of the
National Working Committee, NWC
which held at party’s national
secretariat in Abuja yesterday, the
chairman said that the party had
reached out to all aggrieved parties,
stressing that Nigerians would see a
united APC by next week.

He also marshalled out defence for the
party’s national publicity secretary,
Alhaji Lai Mohammed who he said had
been misunderstood in some quarters
while discharging his responsibilities.
