The Forum of Former State
Chairmen of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, has urged
President Muhammadu Buhari to do something about the looming mass exodus from
the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
The group lamented the growing
exodus of people from APC, while reacting to the recent resignation of former
Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
The group known as the ‘Legacy
Forum’, along with President Buhari had in 2014 led the party to merge with
others to form the APC.
The forum called on Buhari to
take proactive measures to pacify aggrieved members of the APC.
This was part of a communique
issued at the end of their meeting in Abuja, and signed by its chairman, Ahamed
Haruna Zago.
They said, “The Forum appreciates
the achievements recorded so far which include improvement of the security
situation in Nigeria, the tireless fight of the government against corruption
and all vices of waste in government revenue and the steady growth in the
economy, leading to her exit from recession.
“The Forum appeal to the
President to, as a matter of urgency assist the All Progressives Congress APC
to resolve all the crisis in the 36 states chapter of the party including the
FCT with a view to repositioning the party for the next general election in
2019.
“We of the Legacy Forum are not
happy that people are leaving the party.
“We recall a repeat of similar
event in 2013/2014 that led led to the loss of the 2015 general election by the
PDP.
“We advocate that the president
should as a matter of urgency take proactive measures that will pacify party
members and stop them from exiting the party.”
