A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Cletus Obon, has criticised the composition of the party’s presidential campaign council, describing it as flawed and influenced by patronage.
Speaking during an interview on Arise Television, Obon said the party may not have made the best decisions in assembling the campaign team, noting that strategic errors were evident in the list.
According to him, many individuals included in the council lack the necessary qualifications or relevance to the campaign’s objectives.
“As an APC member, I can say we may not have made our best choices in the general composition of the campaign list. We may be reserving our best for the worst; there are strategic errors in the list. Most members of the campaign council have no business being there; some of them were put there as an act of patronage,” he said.
While the APC has yet to respond to the criticism, the statement has sparked fresh conversations about the composition and strategic direction of the party’s campaign machinery.
