The power that creates you can destroy you.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe constitution of the APC belongs to APC members. As of today, I am not aware of any unit in the Federal Republic of Nigeria where APC members said they are not going to register because the registration is unconstitutional.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, by agreeing to participate in the registration, they have given the constitutional validity to the process, this is what it means.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He cautioned that \u201cpeople should be careful when they make comments that are of general nature. If you do not know the law, don\u2019t superintendent over what you do not know.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, with due respect, I will want to say that what the APC is doing nationally is backed by the constitution of APC.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He maintained that the APC is saddled with the problem from those who, along the line, have found their way into the party and have inflicted a lot of wounds on the party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I think it is time for us to appeal to them to allow us to nurse these wounds so that the country will benefit from the good intention of the APC,\u201d he advised.<\/p>\n<p>He thanked President Muhammadu Buhari for the good leadership that he had offered to the party and to the country on behalf of the party so far.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
