President Muhammadu Buhari, Monday, inaugurated a Tripartite Consultative Committee of the executive, legislature and leadership of the All Progressives Congress at the Council Chambers of the State House Abuja
The President, who inaugurated a Tripartite Consultative Committee of the Executive, Legislature and Leadership of the APC at the State House, said amicable resolution of conflicts in the party through regular consultations will create more understanding.
“Let me welcome all of you to this first Consultative Committee of the APC, our members of the National Assembly and the Executive.
“Our party commands a clear majority in the Senate and the House of Representatives. The Vice-President, the distinguished Senate President, the Right Honourable Speaker and I all belong to APC and the working relationships between the Executive and the Legislative have been excellent so far. Our joint responsibility is to keep things that way and see where we can improve our communication and coordination.
“But we must admit to ourselves that our party has been too often embroiled in bitter and on occasions, totally unnecessary squabbles costing us seats in legislative and gubernatorial elections. These never should have happened. We are here to make sure such occurrences do not happen again. We must now ensure regular consultations between the party and the Governments.’’
