The crises currently rocking the ruling All Progressives Congress,
APC, was enough for Senators from the opposition party Peoples’
Democratic Party, PDP, to collectively mock the APC on Tuesday, calling
the party, All Progressives Crisis.
With the ruling APC looking to resolve the crises rocking the party
at the national level and in some states, at the National Executive
Council, NEC, meeting held in Abuja, the PDP Senators countered a
request by an APC Senator to allow his colleagues from the party join
the meeting by chorusing ‘All Progressives Crisis’ on the floor of the
red chamber.
The Majority Leader, Senator Ahmad Lawan, had moved that the plenary be adjourned for the APC NEC meeting.
Lawan
said, “Today, the All Progressives Congress, the ruling party, the APC,
is holding its NEC meeting and it has already started. As a very
time-conscious party, our colleague senators on this side (majority) are
representatives of the chamber, and because of this I want to plead
with all our colleagues here across party lines to show the
understanding just as we had shown understanding when the minority
party, the PDP senators have to go for congresses or whatever.
