APC exco tenure: What Lalong told Oyegun during report submission

The chairman of the technical committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Govenor Simon Lalong of Plateau has urged the National Working Committee (NWC) to painstakingly study the recommendations.

He said this while submitting the document to the party’s National Chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, in Abuja on Friday.

He expressed confidence that if the recommendations were accepted and implemented, the leadership logjam in the party would “become a thing of the past”.

“The task appeared not easy when it was given to us, but with God on our side and the very wide consultations we made, we accomplished it.

“This report has solved most of the problems that we were thinking was within the APC, that is to tell you that there is democracy in the party.

“The committee also looked at the minutes of the party’s s National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of Feb. 27 where the decision to extend the Odigie-Oyegun-led NWC and other party executives by one year starting from June was taken.

“We also looked at the passion and the commitment of the President towards keeping the party as one and at the end of the day, we made far-reaching recommendations.

“We noticed that there were different interests, which is quite usual when you have a party like this, that is progressive”, Lalong said.

Receiving the report, Odigie-Oyegun commended the committee for the job.

“Finally, the recommendations in your report will lay to rest the ghost that has been hovering over the leadership of APC”, he said.
