It may now be safely concluded that the emergence, by a wide margin it must be noted, of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) party is substantially the handiwork of the Northern Governors’ Forum.

The shenanigan that characterised the search for an acceptable candidate had assumed such irritating dimension that even members of the party had cause to wonder if, beginning from the highest level, its leadership believed at all in first the party’s own constitution and second the higher interest of the country it governs.

The National Working Committee also supported the northern governors, saying through its National Organising Secretary Suleiman Argungu that ‘‘we, as members of the NWC are with the governors on what they have said…with regards to the power shift to the South.’’ It needs be noted that the NWC is fourth highest party organ with more than 20 key national officers of the APC as members.

Adamu’s stand has been disowned by the Presidency and just about every party stakeholder that matters. So where did he get his lone idea from? Article 14 of the APC Constitution enjoins the chairman to ‘‘provide efficient and effective leadership to the Party’; that he should ‘Uphold the Constitution and defend the name, policies and programmes of the party.

The APC Constitution in article 3 states the motto of the party as ‘‘Justice, Peace and Unity’; Article 7 declares, among the ‘aims and objectives’’ to ‘‘promote and foster the unity, political stability and national consciousness of the people of Nigeria.
