According to Punch Newspaper:-
" the leadership of the All Progressive Congress has directed its governors to enter into talks with their aggrieved counterparts in the ruling Peoples Democratic Party.The 11 APC governors, including Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State, it was gathered, had been asked to use their contact and speak with the governors on the possibility of defecting from their party.Seven PDP governors are at loggerheads with the leadership of the PDP over the running of the party and other issues.The governors walked out of the PDP mini-convention on August 31 in Abuja to form a faction of the party...."
If the mandated of APC to it governors to woo the "rebel PDP" is anything to go by, it leaves much to be desire the sincerity of APC.
It is on record that APC has been very vocal in condemning the activities of the ruling power and, they have urged the masses to treat PDP like leper. But, the recent mandate of the leadership of APC shows that they too do not have the interest of Nigerians at heart. It is all about who is at the helm of affair.
"The rebel PDP" governors all serving their second term, it is obvious that their recent action was strictly to remain relevant in national polity when they leave office.
If APC so desire and desperate to have the so called aggrieved Governors whom the main PDP termed "rebel", and by extension of that appellation "spoilers", it really means there is no honour amongst thieves.
