The All Progressives Congress National Vice Chairman, North-West, Mallam Salihu Lukman, has accused the party’s National Chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, of failing to involve other APC leaders in making decisions on the party’s activities.
Lukman alleged that the current National Working Committee under the leadership of Adamu is gradually “snowballing” into crisis like the previous administrations of Adams Oshiomhole and Mai Mala Buni.
He also alleged that most NWC decisions were not implemented by Adamu, adding that barely 24 hours to the special convention for the party’s presidential primaries no proper arrangements were in place.
He made the allegations via a letter dated May 27, 2022, and addressed directly to the APC National Chairman.
The letter, which was titled, ‘Rebuilding APC: Need for new initiatives’, copied President Muhammadu Buhari, Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo; Senate President, Ahmad Lawan; Speaker House of Representative, Femi Gbajabiamila; former APC Interim National Chairman, Bisi Akande; APC National Leader, Bola Tinubu, Chief Ogbonnaya Onu, and all the NWC members.
Lukman stated: “The inability of previous leadership under His Excellency, Adams Oshiomhole and His Excellency, Mai Mala Buni, to implement decisions taken was partly responsible for the leadership crisis that confronted the party.

“Under your leadership, the current NWC is gradually snowballing into similar circumstances whereby decisions taken are allowed to lay bare and, in some instances, changed without necessarily taking needed steps to carry members along.
“No doubt, given all the challenges inherited and coming at a time when it’s extremely difficult to control events and almost everything would appear to have been set against the party and its leadership, we need to take every measure to avoid past pitfalls.
“Perhaps, it is important to acknowledge that, as National Chairman, you have raised the expectations of many of us in the NWC, and by extension many party leaders.
“For instance, the whole idea of setting up a transition committee, which took stock of what we have inherited, was your singular initiative,” the letter partly read.
