APC CRISIS: Buhari Meets Atiku, Oyegun And Others

The need to further consult and calm frayed nerves has been adduced as reasons why the leadership of the All Progressives Congress shelved a meeting scheduled to hold in Abuja on Tuesday.

It was learnt that some of the party leaders, who were still aggrieved on the outcome of the National Assembly leadership elections, are yet to agree to sit on the roundtable with individuals they claimed stabbed them in the back.

A member of the party caucus, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue, said, “You expect me to sit with people, who for their selfish interests, connived with the opposition to deny our party what is due to it?

“We need time for the wounds to heal. You must also understand that the comment of Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, which is in the papers today, has not helped matters.”

It was further learnt that as part of the consultations before a wider meeting would be called, President Muhammadu Buhari met with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar; APC’s National Chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun; and the Nasarawa State Governor, Alhaji Tanko Al-Makura, at his private residence in Abuja on Thursday.

When contacted, the National Publicity Secretary of APC, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, denied knowledge of any scheduled caucus or Board of Trustees meeting.
