APC crisis: Buhari not a good party manager – APC chieftain
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr. Jackson Ojo has stated that President Muhammadu Buhari is not a good party manager.
He said President Muhammadu Buhari’s carefree stance to happenings in the ruling APC deepened crisis involving the National Chaiman, Comrade Adams Oshiomohle and Edo State governor, Mr. Goodwin Obaseki.
Ojo explained that it was Buhari that should be the APC National leader and not Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
He lampooned Oshiomhole for wanting god-fatherism reincarnated after he silenced god-fathers in Edo politics during his tenure as Governor.
“For not stepping in, I can say that President Buhari is not a good party administrator. With due respect to his person, the President seems not interested about what becomes of the APC after his second term in office, after all, he has gotten his second term.
“In the last National Executive Committee, NEC meeting, he said he wouldn’t want the party to pack up after he must have left. That means, he is aware of the fate that awaits the party.
Speaking on who is a national leader, Mr Ojo said; “He ought to be the man or woman who holds the highest elective office on the platform of the party and that is President Buhari.”
“For me, referring to Bola Tinubu as national leader of the party is a mockery of the man from Lagos.
“He (Tinubu) is not the national leader but Buhari who is the national leader does not care what is happening in the party today.
“Before the election, they set up a committee that was headed by Tinubu but at the end of the day, he failed.”
