2023 Presidency: Any Attempt To Zone APC Ticket To North, Suicide For Ruling Party – Group | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

A group, the Movement for Better Nigeria, MBN, has described any attempt by the All Progressive Congress, APC to zone its presidential ticket to North as a suicide for the party.

Speculations have had it that the ruling party is considering a Northern presidential candidate to give the party an edge in winning the 2023 presidential election.

But, a Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Akwa Ibom State and Coordinator of MBN, Dr Paul Dowells in a press conference at his office in Uyo on Tuesday said giving a ticket to a Northerner is not the yardstick for winning elections but rather the pedigree and charisma of the person that would fly the party’s flag.

Part of his statement read: “we, as a group that advocates for good governance say “Enough is enough!.” We will no longer fold our arms and watch these people take us back to the dark days. It is said that when two elephants fight, the grass suffers. In this case, APC in Akwa Ibom suffers the fight between the two persons in the party which has led to the polarisation of the party.

“What we have been suffering in this state since 2011 is ownership and entitlement mentality of a member who feels that without him there is No APC in Akwa Ibom, that is why we have remained down politically in the state.

“In 2015 that same person came again claiming to be the owner of APC when the likes of Comrade David Ekanem, Late Idongesit Udoekpo, Late Steve Ibanga and others who went to his house and lobbied him to leave PDP and join APC did not claim ownership. That same fight began and APC lost the election.

”In 2019, we brought Akpabio to the party, and he came again with a lot of trouble, the duo were championing their selfish interest embellished with sabotage which made APC lose again. Though Akpabio was compensated with the office of the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, taking the glory of other people who worked tirelessly for the party while Udoedehe became the National Secretary

“Now again! 2022, that same person and his likes are here, we say never again! APC has gone a long way and should allow internal democracy to thrive and not allow one person who sees the party as his birthright to have his way. We expect the party to sit down and strategize on how to win the state and not to allow internal fighting.
