The National Chairman of Reformed
All Progressives Congress (R-APC), Buba Galadima, has lashed out at the
leadership of the All Progressives Congress (R-APC), describing them as mere
servants who are attempting to lock out their landlord.
Galadima stated this while
speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
He said: “I don’t need to talk
much in trying to establish my status as a member of the APC. Those who say so
(doubt my membership of the APC) might not know because when we were forming
the APC, we didn’t see them. They were nowhere. So, how will they know? Let
them go to INEC and check who were the signatories. Buba Galadima was the third
signatory in the document that merged the parties.
“These people are AGIP — Any
Government In Power. We know their antecedents, so we are not surprised that
they are saying this.”
On whether his faction would
leave the APC, he said it was impossible for a landlord to leave his house for
his servants.
“Go where? You mean that you
build a house, roof it, bring in water, light and then once you go out, your
servants just lock you out and you want me to clap for them?” he queried.
Galadima also laughed off
speculations that his group was being sponsored.
“Sponsored like how? I have a
stake. What will I use money for? Check my background, I have impeccable
integrity, an honest individual, a principled Nigerian per excellence not
second to anybody, since 1978 till date. I don’t follow the flowers. I follow the
grains and that is where I am.
“I am a stakeholder, a foundation
member. We formed the APC. We have gone through this road before and people
were called names. Do you remember Alhaji Bamanga Tukur of the PDP when such
issue occurred? He told the nation that the five governors could go, that it
will not affect the fortunes of the party but we know what happened. People
should be students of history and nobody can discountennace our contributions,
nobody,” he added.
