Itse Sagay, Chairman of the
Presidential Committee on Anti-Corruption, PACAC, has warned that the All
Progressives Congress, APC, may not retain power come 2019.
Featuring on Channels television,
Sagay said APC may be voted out because the party cannot convince Nigerians
that it’s fighting corruption and because its officials are allegedly promoting
corruption.
The PACAC Chairman noted that the
current leadership of the party must be removed if the party must remain in
power, come 2019.
According to Sagay, “If you have
a big party which has a specific mandate to fight corruption or at least reduce
it drastically to a level that it will not stop the nation’s development, then
the members of such party must be seen also fighting corruption.
“If you have such mandate as a
party and you have people in that party who are actively promoting corruption
or they are subject of corruption and promoters of corruption, what they are
doing is denying the party (the opportunity) of truly fighting corruption.
“Then it is better to totally
remove people of that nature from the party and form a smaller party in which
everybody would have confidence in themselves rather than have a big party in
which people are doing things contrary to what the party stands for.
“My view is that the party
hierarchy and party leadership and not the government, are condoning
corruption. They are hobnobbing with those corrupt party members and therefore
setting a stage for the government to have serious problem when there is need
to convince people that the party is entitled to have another term in
government.”
