The National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr. Felix Morka, stated yesterday that despite ongoing defections, the ruling party has no intention of transforming Nigeria into a one-party state. He noted that when the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was in power and held sway over more than 28 states, it was never accused of pursuing a one-party agenda. Morka added that there is nothing wrong with members of the PDP or Labour Party choosing to join the APC if they wish to align with its vision and processes. He said: “Many of these people are coming in and saying, we want to be part of the process. We want to identify with that process. There’s nothing wrong with that. And you know, that does not mean that we desire for Nigeria to then become a one party system. “As our country, both in the Constitution, in Electoral Act, and a plethora of other laws, have embedded systems that unmistakably make Nigeria a multi party and pluralist society. So, we cannot as a party desire to go against the force of the Constitution, to say we want a party. Because to do that, you have to change a lot, which is nearly impossible to change.” The party’s spokesperson dismissed the one-party narrative, saying the APC only worries about how it would continue to protect itself.
