If you have people like Bukola Saraki, Ali-Modu Sherrif, etc in your party then you have to always be on the lookout for shockers, as they are known to exhibit high level arrogance and indiscipline.
A truce meeting called on Monday by the leadership of the All Progressives Congress was boycotted by the gang of Senator Bukola Saraki, one of the party’s top contenders for the president of the Senate.
Saraki and his men boycotted the meeting after reportedly telling party leaders that as a former governor he could not attend a meeting summoned by a "mere commissioner", referring to Professor Yemi Osinbajo, who was a former Commissioner of Justice in Lagos.
The same Saraki was a mere banker before he became a governor. VP Osinbajo is even far more educated than him. Saraki is a Senator, while Osinbajo is now the Vice President.
Following Saraki’s snub, Prof. Osinbajo didn’t bother to attend the meeting, but the party met with its elected lawmakers, with some of Saraki’s earlier supporters joining the meeting.
Sources at the meeting said the National Working Committee of the APC reaffirmed their support for the men they all elected during Saturday’s mock primaries of the party.
APC is expected to hold a final meeting on Tuesday morning to prepare for the elections.
