“Look at it this way, we had our National Executive Council, NEC, that elected me. There was no single opposing voice from the APC members. No governor or National Assembly member and no divergent voice across the country on my election.
“Unlike other political parties. You know what is happening there. The kind of internal wrangling or crisis. Lack of democracy within them, taking themselves to court on several issues.
