A national chairmanship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Sunny Sylvester Moniedafe, has attributed the crises rocking the ruling party to the absence of a statutory organ, the Board of Trustees.
Tribune Online checks revealed that the position of Chairman of BoT has been vacant since the inception of the APC as the main opposition party in 2014.
Further investigation revealed that two other statutory organs, the national caucus and the National Executive Committee have not been conducting meetings leaving the National Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee led by Yobe State governor, Mai Mala Buni, to solely run the administration of the APC.
Addressing a forum of APC stakeholders to galvanize support for his ambition, Sylvester Moniedafe promised to make the Board of Trustees active and in the process give all Stakeholders a sense of belonging as he declared that “it is time for the APC to do the right thing.”
He said: “APC does not have a BOT which should be the conscience of the party six years after clinching power, as a result, crises within the party festers.
“It is time for the APC to do the right thing. Let us change the narrative. I have a deep desire to unite Nigeria.
“I will heal many wounds in the APC as chairman of the party. There is a need to make Nigeria better.”
He dismissed the insinuation that he is being pushed by certain forces to seek the exalted seat of national chairman of the APC.
“I have no god-father, neither am I a former governor, Senator or House of Representatives member. I am a political orphan! Please adopt me and, together, let’s make our party and our beloved country great.
“It’s only in Nigeria that a person goes to bed a pauper, and wakes up a millionaire just because he has a political godfather or grandfather somewhere. Please join me and let’s stop this Frankenstein Monster being created from being unleashed on the nation!” Moniedafe said.
