Why Our Governors Visited Jonathan – APC

 

 

 

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has explained why its governors visited former President, Goodluck Jonathan.

APC said being a platform for progressives, it was taking steps “to consolidate on its national appeal and acceptance.”

Yekini Nabena, Deputy National Publicity Secretary, disclosed this in a statement on Sunday.

Earlier, the PDP had noted that the APC governors  visited Jonathan because they realized and have admitted he did well in office.

Taunting the opposition as “rattled and disoriented,” Nabena said the state executives’ trip to the former Bayelsa State Governor was not a big deal.

“At a time when the PDP and its leadership is grappling with a crisis of confidence, one would expect the failed opposition to focus on picking itself up,” he said.

Chairman of the APC Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) and Governor of Yobe State, Mai Mala Buni led the delegation to Jonathan.

On his entourage were Governors Atiku Bagudu (Kebbi), Badaru Abubakar (Jigawa), David Umahi (Ebonyi), among others.

The stalwarts met Jonathan one day after a parley with President Buhari at the State House, Abuja.
