| APC's Flag. |
The
Lagos State chapter of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC has come out
with the resolved to use DIRECT PRIMARIES to elect candidates who will fly the
party’s flag in the 2019 election into various positions in the state.
The
party has therefore commenced the process of registering new members as she
issues membership cards to those who had registered before.
National
Leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu while addressing party members
at the secretariat of the party in Lagos, said it was gratifying to report that
the party has resolved to register additional members, adding that membership
register would be opened to facilitate the process of registration which would
eventually be used for the direct primaries during the selection of candidates
of the party.
He said:
“We appeal to
all our members to update the membership registration and embrace the direct
primary that has just been introduced and adopted by our party. We are
committed to our party; we are committed to the values of the party; we see
direct primary as President Muhammadu Buhari’s anti-corruption and internal
democracy revolution.”
“We are going to embrace that
in which the party is going back to the owners of the party and that is you the
people. It is not we the few; it is we the people. We have embraced democracy
and you have your decisions to be made but you have to be members of our party
in the first place,”
He also dismissed the insinuation that the party
is divided in the State, saying there is nothing of such, and that the party is
intact.
“We reiterate the fact that APC
in Lagos State is intact. There is no division. I’ve heard some people
conspiring to present a situation of division in the party in Lagos but let me
assure you that it is just the coming together of adversaries which will have
no effect on the party,” Tinubu said.
Besides, he said the
party at the State level also passed a resolution commending the Acting
President, Professor Yemi Osinbajofor taking decisive actions to
save the party and the nation from any embarrassment, saying: “We commend his efforts; we stand with him; and we stand with all
members of our party,” just as the party commended all the
steps taken so far by APC National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole.
