President Muhammadu Buhari has warned leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to stop calling each other names and backstabbing each other.

The ruling party in Nigeria has been factionalized ahead of the March 26 Convention, with Yobe State Governor Mai Buni insisting on remaining the National Chairman.

Sani Bello, his Niger counterpart, now leads the APC, causing a schism among governors, lawmakers, other chieftains, and members.

If the APC is to continue on its path of victory and dominance across the country, Buhari told the party’s warring factions to remain steadfast and united.

“Learn lessons in disunity, mismanagement, and corruption from the once-powerful Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), now enfeebled and adrift,” the leader told members.

In a statement, presidential spokesman Garba Shehu quoted his principal as saying, “They failed in 16 years in power and a failure as opposition.”

“Yes, we have a right to our own dissent and intra-party strife.” These are found in all political parties, both left and right, around the world.

“However, parties splintered by competing egos are doomed to suffer the worst possible outcome,” the President warned.

“As the country prepares for the long road to the 2023 presidential election, we all expect a robust debate on the issues that matter, and what’s going on in the APC should reflect that, not the infighting we’re seeing.”

Buhari warned against more distractions in the run-up to the election of new leaders.

He went on to say that the APC did not begin on a note of power arrogance, but rather as a vehicle to bring development to all people without discrimination.
