The leader of the APC in Lagos
Central senatorial district, Chief Tajudeen Olusi, confirmed this yesterday.
Olusi said the Lagos chapter was
prepared to register its displeasure with President Buhari and other
appropriate organs of the party.
“The option available to us is
that we are going to make representations to all organs of the party.
“We are going to talk with the
national leadership, the national executive and President Buhari”, he told
Thisday.
Olusi, who earlier faulted the
tenure elongation, quoting Section 223 of the 1999 Constitution as amended
which stipulates elections at interval and Article 17 of the APC constitution,
which stipulates a four-year tenure for its national and state executives, said
it amounts to depriving other aspirants to the post.
“The tenure elongation is against
the constitution of Nigeria and the party. It is a means of depriving aspirants
who want to aspire.
“We think we should allow
democracy to thrive in the party,” he added.
Noting that APC leaders in Lagos
unanimously rejected the elongation after receiving reports from the Chairman,
Chief Henry Ajomale, Olusi however declares that the state was in support of
the reconciliatory responsibility assigned to former Governor, Bola Tinubu.
