No more division in our party – APC

The All Progressives Congress has said the confirmation of all the ministerial nominees by the Senate, despite some misgivings by the opposition party, has shown there was no longer any division within the APC family.

In a release on Thursday by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party stated that the cohesion displayed by the APC senators indicated that the lawmakers were ready to work with the executive.

The party said, ”The cohesion and unity exhibited by the APC Senators on Thursday have shown that our legislators are ready to work with the executive and the party to ensure that the agenda of the party is implemented for the benefit of all Nigerians.”

It added that the party commended all its members and leaders in the Senate including the leadership of the APC for the show of unity.

The statement further noted that democracy was at work in the Senate on Thursday, despite the decision of the Peoples Democratic Party senators to walk out over the confirmation of a former governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi.

”It is part of democracy that while the minority can have their say, the majority will have their way. Therefore, the decision of the PDP senators to walk out is nothing but democracy in action,” the party said.

The party enjoined the two legislative chambers to continue to work with the executive arm of government in the overall interest of Nigeria and its people.

”With the stage now set for the federal cabinet to be in place, we implore all Nigerians, irrespective of their party affiliation, to support President Muhammadu Buhari in his onerous task of making Nigeria great again,” APC said
