Lagos CPC Members Pull Out Of APC, Join PDP by Ayed44: 9:52am On Oct 12, 2014 |
Following allegations of marginalisation in the All Progressives Congress (APC), leaders and members of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) in Lagos State have pulled out of the party to join the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). CPC is one of the legacy parties – Action Congress of Nigeria (CAN), All Nigerian People's Party (ANPP) and a faction of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) – that merged to form APC. The state chapter of CPC had been alleging usurpation of party structures and maginalisation of other parties in the merger by APC, which had carried on like the leading party in the merger. Before pulling out of APC, the CPC group in the Lagos chapter of APC said after months of several meetings, consultations and deliberations, the long- awaited justice was not done to its members and from the look of things, they were afraid of what would be their political fate, hence the need to take their political future into their hands by withdrawing their membership from the APC and moving en- masse to the PDP where they believe their interests would be welcome and protected. Briefing journalists recently to announce the pull out of CPC members from APC, the State Chairman of APC-CPC in Lagos State, Hon. Ashogbon Lattif, said it was unfortunate that the leadership of APC and CPC failed to yield to their cries of marginalisation and gross impunity perpetrated by the defunct ACN which is running the affairs of APC in the state. Noting that the members of the CPC group took their complaints to the APC National headquarters, but nothing had been done to address the situation, he said, “What we experienced shows their greed of uncommon proportion and why they turned a supposed formidable merger process to conquest of other merging parties in order to satisfy their uncommon greed.” He pointed out that the APC membership registration exercise which aimed at building a sense of belonging among all was done in total disregard to the APC national guidelines as regards the involvement of the merging parties with respect to the manner which the registration officers, in wards and LGAs and state supervisors for the exercise were to be shared among the three legacy parties. Ashogbon noted that out of the 171 supervisors engaged at the Local Government level, CPC had only 26 slots instead of 57 due to his party. At the ward supervisors’ level, 376 slots were given to CPC out of 1,128. For Polling Unit Registration Officers, 346 was given to CPC against the entitlement of 5,093 out of a total lots of 16, 978. He further stated that the congresses which ought to produce united party structure of the APC was characterised by uncommon greed of the defunct ACN leadership. At the state level, out of 35 executives, 34 seats were taken by CAN, while one was left to be shared between CPC and ANPP. In the 57 LGAs, out of 1368, ACN took 1349 and left 19. He however said his party members had finally resolved in their mind without being apologetic to anyone that the APC-CPC faction across the 57 council areas of the state was moving en-masse to PDP where they believe that the tenets of democracy is appreciated and practiced, and that they remain resolute in their determination to rescue Lagos come 2015 general elections. http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/lagos-cpc-members-pull-out-of-apc-join-pdp/191063/ 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Buhari the former CPC leader is no where to be found leaving his erstwhile supporters to fend for themselves. There's nothing Buhari wouldn't do to become president again. This man would suck a diick if it makes him president for one day, see desperation. 7 Likes |

If you ain't making sacrifices at primary level ? Move on. We don't do infighting expecially when we are in government office. Go to the pdp and do the adamawa and taraba thing. 2 Likes |

Was CPC even visible in Lagos State before the merger? This is so funny. It is just like ACN complaining of marginalisation in Kano. Well the CPC goons should work hard with the APC in Lagos so as to earn their place rather than complain over a free gift |

There is no party with internal democracy in Nigeria as will be seen in the up comming primary elections. At least we knew what happened in the then APC primaries. |

Nigerian politicians are without particular ideologies. That why it is very childish to think that because someone moved from the PDP to the APC, the person has become "progressive". These folks moving from APC to the PDP are no "progressives". It makes no difference whether they are in PDP, APC, LP or any other party 1 Like |

I have said it before and I will say it again. apc is finished in Lagos. We are waiting for Labour party in Lagos to join PDP then 2015 elections would be delivered. Also, PDP should nurse the chance of fielding a Deputy from another tribe and watch how they will enjoy massive support from the Electorates in Lagos. After all, Lagos belongs to all. |
