In a swift reaction, to the crisis brewing in the All Progressive Congres APC, Senator John James Akpanudoedehe who was Secretary in Mai Mala Buni Caretaker Committee of the has triggered an alarm alerting Nigerians that they should avoid the present crops of APC Governors whom he described as Agent of destruction. Senator Akpanudoedehe’s comment as forwarded to 9News Nigeria says: “They know this President loves Buni. This is the only person that is loyal to the President. None of them loves the President like Buni. They are agents of destruction, Nigerians should disregard these people”
The former Secretary denied the allegations levelled against the Buni-led committee.
He described the action of the APC Governors as treacherous, accusing them of stabbing Buni in the back because he was out of the country on medical treatment and was not in a position to defend himself.
Akpanudoedehe also dismissed El-Rufai’s threat to remove him, adding that no man should elevate himself above God.
He said it was unfortunate that the likes of El-Rufai were badmouthing Buni before the President despite the many achievements he had attained in the APC since he took over in 2020.
The Secretary argued that all the decisions taken by Buni were backed by the Governors. He therefore wondered why they were throwing him under the bus.
Akpanudoedehe stated, “The only advantage they have is that they can smooth-talk. Buni does not talk much. Why didn’t they refuse when the party handed the structures to the Governors? Why did they not come to the National Secretariat then to complain?
“Now almost all the States the Governors are controlling are in court seeking that the convention should be stopped because they need to settle their cases, that is not my concern but I want you to close your eyes and see a brother of yours lying on a sick bed being operated upon and your fellow Governors holding knives and stabbing him on his sick bed, you will understand the kind of persons these people are.
“It is like the case of Caesar and Brutus. After working so hard for the party, they stuck their knives in him. If you have love, why did you take the issue to the President? Their aim was to paint him black before the President. They know this President loves Buni. This is the only person that is loyal to the President. None of them loves the President like Buni. They are agents of destruction, Nigerians should disregard these people. They are playing to the gallery.”
