Signs that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is not insulated from intra-party crises currently bedeviling the main opposition parties – the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the Labour Party (LP) – emerged recently with the attack on the National Chairman of the party, Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, at the meeting of the stakeholders of the party from the North-east in Gombe State.
Referring to the crises in PDP and LP, President Bola Tinubu had recently mocked the opposition parties, gleefully declaring his joy at what he described as their “moment of disarray”.
But at the APC North-east stakeholders’ meeting in Gombe State, Ganduje was attacked by the supporters of the party for endorsing President Tinubu for reelection without endorsing Vice President Kashim Shettima, who is from the North-east, as his running mate.
