President Bola Tinubu has directed the National Working Committee (NEC) of the party to constitute committees to reconcile aggrieved members of the party.
The president gave the directive at the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the party held on Wednesday in Abuja.
Tinubu commended the National Working Committee (NEC) of the party for doing a good job.
He stated: “I am happy with food prices coming down, especially as Ramadan approaches. The Sun is high, and the sky is bright outside.
“While the rest of the world unravels, we see growth in Nigeria. We are seeing a gradual return to stability. We are seeing improvements. I thank you, governors.”
The President pledged to continue working assiduously with other arms of government to ensure the greater good for Nigerians and commended APC governors and executives for their continued and unwavering commitment.
“I’m grateful to all Nigerians for the electoral successes recorded from one state to the other. Governors, you have embraced these changes, and I thank the leadership of our party. I also thank members of the National Assembly for expeditiously considering the budget.
“We can only build the party on a progressive platform to deliver good service to Nigerians.”
Tinubu also commended the party’s National Working Committee for its performance and called for measures to end some of the crises in the states.
His words: “The National Working Committee is doing a very good job; I am pleased with them. However, there are a few conflicts in the various states. Let’s set up committees to look into the lingering problems in the states and appeal to these party leaders in various states to please be calm and be collaborative.”
TheHintsNews reports that former President Muhammadu Buhari, his vice, Yemi Osinbajo, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi, Mallam Nasir El-rufai of Kaduna, former Governor of Ekiti state, Kayode Fayemi, former Senate President, Ahmed Lawan, among others were conspicuously absent at the meeting.
However, as statutory members of the party’s NEC they were expected to be in attendance. Their absence might not be unconnected with the crack within the ruling party.
Recently, El-Rufai has been launching ferocious attacks on the leadership of the party, especially with the refusal to hold NEC meeting for 18 months, as well as the Tinubu-led government.
The former governor had while featuring on a national TV said there are so many members of the party that are not happy with what is going on, he just happens to be the one voicing out.
