Fresh crisis seems to have hit the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the Deputy National Chairman, North, Sen. Lawali Shuaibu, on Tuesday called on the party’s National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, to resign immediately.

This order to vacate the office of the national chairman is not unconnected with the loss of Zamfara State by the APC to the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) following a ruling by the Supreme Court.

In a letter dated May 27, 2019, which was addressed to Oshiomhole, Shuaibu held that in advanced democracies, people who fail to add value or build over and above what they met on assumption of duty show some civilised examples, “they honourably resign.”

The six-page letter titled ‘APC: Its fortune and misfortune, time to act!’ added: “It is my honest opinion that your ability to ensure this party flourishes is deficient as you lack the necessary composure and you also don’t posses the capabilities and the requisite experience to run a political party.”

According to the letter, “I write this letter to you with a very deep (sic) heart and high sense of responsibility.

“I write this letter thinking because I am a critical stakeholder in the APC project.

“I write this letter with my hands shaking, arising from realising my involvement in a project that is currently seen as failing, even before achieving the ambition of its founding fathers. I never found myself in any failed project.

“In advanced democracies, people who fail to add value or build over and above what they met on assumption of duty show some civilized examples, they honourably bow out.

“In that connection, therefore, I want to advise you to take the path of honour, to step aside and allow the Party to embark on the onerous task of reconstruction and rehabilitation in those States it was weakened by the effect of the last primary election exercises.

“Or even the task of recreating the party where it is on the path of extinction, arising from the loss of a sitting APC Government, for example in Zamfara State, where you directly personally created the problem leading to the painful complete loss of APC’s electoral fortunes. From up to down, all these are uncontestable facts.

“You cannot exonerate yourself from what happened to APC (in) Zamfara State, thereby destroying the hopes and aspirations of 534,541 APC members and supporters.”
