Chairman of the National
Caretaker Committee (NCC) of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), Ahmed
Makarfi, has described the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) as a copy cat
party.
Makarfi took this swipe at the
APC when former Speakers of PDP-controlled State Houses of Assembly paid him a
solidarity visit at the party’s National Secretariat in Abuja.
He said that until the PDP held
its expanded caucus meeting among others, the APC never remembered there was
the need to bring its members together to chart the way forward.
“We have chosen to be a greater
party and even with our crises we are never afraid to hold meetings.
“Within two days, we had expended
caucus meeting and that meeting was like a market place as even those who were
not members of the party came.
“When we had the caucus meeting,
we had the Board of Trustees (BoT) meeting too and the government wanted to
copy.
“They had meeting with the Vice
President and some governors were threatening to leave the party because it was
the first meeting in over a year or so,” Makarfi said.
