The National Working Committee of
All Progressives Congress will on Tuesday meet the Senators so as to broker peace on Federal government - Senate face off.
According to the press release signed by the Publicity Secretary of APC, Mallam Bolaji Abdullah, it stated;
“Following the All Progressives Congress (APC) resolve to intervene in the on-going rift between the executive and the National Assembly, the APC National Working Committee (NWC) will on Tuesday, April 4, meet with the party’s caucus of the Senate.
“Worried by the worsening relationship between the two arms of government, the party had embarked on a series of consultations with the key actors aimed at resolving the growing impasse.
“It would be recalled that the party’s leadership led by Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, its national chairman, recently met with the House of Representatives APC caucus.”
“Ahead of the Tuesday meeting with the Senate, the party expresses its happiness with the committee set up by President Muhammadu Buhari to re-examine the executive relationship with the National Assembly.
“The party considers the committee headed by the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, as a step in the right direction, which demonstrates President Buhari’s recognition of the paramount importance of the legislative institution in a democracy.
“The party reiterates its commitment to ensure that the relationship between the two critical arms of government improves further, and commended the National Assembly leadership for its maturity and pre-disposition to have all the issues resolved as quickly as possible in the interest of the party and the nation as a whole.
“The party, however, warns that it would not hesitate to take appropriate action against any member whose utterances or behaviour is capable of jeopardising the peace initiatives or further worsening the existing situation.”
