APC Leaders Will Not Allow President Buhari To Performe – Jonathan’s Aide

A former Special Adviser on Political Affairs to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Prof. Rufai Alkali, on Sunday said it was the All Progressives Congress leaders that would pose problem to the President Muhammadu Buhari’s adminstration.

Alkali, in a statement in Abuja, said the greatest obstacle to Buhari’s administration would be some people who he described as over-ambitious leaders of the ruling APC.

He said, “The greatest obstacle to the Muhammadu Buhari administration is not the Peoples Democratic Party and other political parties, but some of the over-ambitious leaders and members of his party, the APC, who believe they have invested so much in his election and cannot wait a day longer to collect returns from their investments.”

He reiterated that the APC was not properly prepared to govern a complex nation like Nigeria, recalling that he had shortly before the inauguration of the current government called on the leadership of the APC to plan more and talk less.

He said rather than heed his call, he was castigated by the APC spokesman, Alhaji Lai Mohammed.

Alkali said;

“I have observed with keen interest the scenario in the National Assembly that resulted in the election of Senator Bukola Saraki and Hon. Yakubu Dogara and other leaders of the National Assembly. 

“What attracted my attention more, though not surprising, were the incoherent and contradictory responses from the leaders of the APC, especially the faction led by the former governor of Lagos State, Bola Tinubu, who rejected the outcome of the election and without decorum blamed President Muhammadu Buhari as being responsible for the debacle in the National Assembly. 

“This is indeed a clear confirmation of my earlier warning to the APC to plan more and talk less.
