Timi Frank, former Deputy
National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), on
Wednesday faulted the tenure extension of the national working committee of the
party led by John Oyegun.
Frank said extending Oyegun’s
tenure has shown that “APC is an undemocratic party,” adding that the party
won’t go anywhere in 2019.
In a statement he signed, the
former spokesperson said the elongation of Oyegun’s tenure also shows that
President Muhammadu Buhari does not believe in the reconciliation effort of the
party’s national leader, Bola Tinubu.
According to Frank,“I am
personally disappointed with the tenure extension of Chief John Oyegun led
leadership. This has clearly shown that APC is an undemocratic party. A party
which has been in existence for three years but has never obeyed its own
constitution.
“I challenged anybody to tell me
which part of the APC constitution has been religiously obeyed in the past?
This is has shown again the difference between PDP and APC, but I know that the
former is better.
“I will not relent in speaking
the truth which I’m known for. This decision is against the wish of the
majority but for the oppressors within the party.
“Even when the presidency had
appointed the national leader of APC to reconcile all the aggrieved members,
the tenure elongation clearly show that the party is going nowhere beyond 2019
because if they didn’t believe in Tinubu’s reconciliatory panel why did they
set up at all.
“How can you keep a man that
lacks capacity to lead a governing political party for another twelve months?
This has shown that those who took such decision are selfish and do not mean
well for APC.
“Some of us that came from PDP
have not been treated well, even the positions being held today by the Senate
President Bukola Saraki and speaker Yakubu Dogara were forcefully taken.
“Time will tell very soon when
some of us will have to take decision against some of these anti-democratic tendencies
of some people in APC.”
