A chieftain of the ruling All Progressive Congress, APC, Moshood Salvador, has expressed doubt over the possibility of the party convention still holding on March 26, 2022, as proposed.
Salvado, who is the founder of Conscience Forum, stated this in a chat with the media.
According to him: “When you talk about the March 26th date of our convention, whether it is feasible or not, I can confidently say that I cannot beat my chest and say that whatever decision or directive that our leaders, the caretaker committee and others, make should be followed.
“Until it happens I cannot say that it is feasible. This is because they can wake up the next morning and change the date. Everybody is tired. We are just watching. It is worrisome that they are taking things for granted. The elders of our party should call them to order because they seem to be taking too many things for granted and that is very dangerous for our party.

“They believe that members are fools. They shouldn’t think that they have all the powers in the world because power belongs to the Almighty Allah,” he said.
“They will give directives, and as you are planning, before you know what is happening they will change everything without any excuse or regard for your feelings. It is for that reason that they will sit down and say that they have given the party to state governors. If they are good politicians they won’t do that. They have rendered the party useless because the governors are now the ones in control,” he said.
Speaking on allegations that the action of APC leaders may likely have a negative effect on the party in 2023 general elections, he said, “It is for that reason that we have been warning them because it won’t pay us if the party loses. We are the ones who will suffer; the governors won’t be affected. We are appealing to them to change their leadership style.
“If you come to a state like Lagos and say that somebody like Honourable Salvador is not relevant, as long as you can talk to Sanwo-Olu, so be it.

“If you say that Rauf Aregbesola is not relevant in Osun State, it is unfortunate, or that Lai Mohammed is not relevant in Kwara State and that Ibikunle Amosu cannot be reckoned with in Ogun State, you are gradually killing the party”.
