A group under the umbrella of the Coalition of progressive Youth Group and in Diaspora, (COPY-ND) has dismissed alleged Leadership crisis in All Progressive Congress (APC).
The Leader of the group Aminu Ishaiku disclosed this on Friday during a world press conference in Abuja said that, at no time there was any crisis in the party or faction as claimed by Progressive Youth Movement.
Ishiaku further explained that, the so called leadership announced by the sponsored and desperate youth group did not represent the views of the teeming youths that form the foundation, remain the assets of the party
He said while they acknowledge the Democratic rights of all Party members, it is their firm conviction that the focal point of any such rights should be in the interest of the country, the party and the people of Nigeria and in line with the laid down process and procedures available in the Party structure.
According him, “the so called new leadership announced by this sponsored desperate youth group – PYM does not represent the views of the teeming youths that form the foundation and remain the assets of our great partly”.
“Our message is simple: the APC is a party of rules and due process and is too critical to the Nigerian youth, that cannot BE distracted by A mere press briefing and reckless announcement of new leadership arbitrarily by a sponsored group that is alien to our coalition and to the party.
“our message is simple: the APC is a party of rules and due process and is too critical to the Nigerian youth, that cannot BE distracted by A mere press briefing and reckless announcement of new leadership arbitrarily by a sponsored group that is alien to our coalition and to the party, ” he explained.
” It is rather unfortunate that at a time when we have a president, who has restored the image of the country, and in developing the needed infrastructures, diversified the economy, improved food security, fighting against insurgency and corruption, developed social investment programmes and youth inclusion in governance via his assent to the not too young to run act., but some people are ready to undermine these legacies and must not be tolerated.
The group therefore call on the party to investigate the root cause and personalities involved in the unconstitutional power grabbing in the party, and if they are truly members of the party who acted against the law, the party should apply sanctions on them
immediately.
