Masari Says Absence Of Coordination Dangerous For APC
The Governor of Katsina State and Chairman, Steering Committee of All Progressives Congress, APC on Legislative Matters, Aminu Masari has warned that absence of coordination among party member was dangerous for the party
Masari who also indicted the leadership of the All Progressive Congress APC, added that it was imperative for the leadership of the party to address the matter if it must sustained its existence.
He said “We have not managed our personal aspiration to contest elections through the inability of our party leadership to painstakingly ensure broad consultations leading to a collective decision that was recorded on most of these avoidable circumstances.
“We know what happened in the build-up to 2019, the crisis we have in so many states within our own political party. I am referring to those crises that could have been avoided. Recognizing that conflicting demands from all stakeholders would not be easy to manage. Compliance with the provisions of our party constitution, and the relevant laws of Nigeria.”
Masari revealed this while speaking at the visit of the APC governors to the leadership of the National Assembly in Abuja on Sunday.
He said “the Progressive Governors Forum has a standing subcommittee on Legislative Matters that started in the last Assembly. But unfortunately, no success came out for obvious reasons. So we thought that we should contact you early enough so that we put machinery in motion in making sure that this time around, we are on the same page – the Progressive Governors Forum and the National Assembly. In doing so we want to use this opportunity to address some fundamental issues that do not only affect APC alone as a political party but the whole nation.”
Masari urged the APC leaders to make amendment in management of political relations and consultation of stakeholders with other party members.
He said “the absence of coordination has produced a crisis of trust which if care is not taken can destroy our party and the political process. So as leaders, we need to make amends especially in the area of management of political relations among all the party stakeholders.”
“We can recall that President Muhammadu Buhari recently reminded us of both our responsibilities in providing leadership to ensure that all of us as elected representatives which is a collective body that should prioritize building strong relationships between all elected representatives both in the executive and legislative arms of government as well as our party leaders,” he added.
In his remarks, President of the Senate, Senator Ahmad Lawan thanked the governors for playing a vital role in the Installation of the leadership of the National Assembly
