Three governors of the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC); Atiku Bagudu (Kebbi), Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti) and Mohammed Badaru (Jigawa) have been accused of plotting to impose Senator Sani Musa as the next chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The All Progressives Congress Youth Development and Solidarity Forum said the three governors of plotting to impose Senator Sani Musa as national chairman of the party ahead of the February 26 convention.
The Secretary-General of the forum, Mr Tobias Ogbeh, made the accusation while addressing journalists on Sunday in Abuja.
Ogbeh said the trio has concluded plans to impose Musa at the February 26 convention.
Warning that plots to impose Musa on the party may lead to the implosion, Ogbeh said the governors want Musa to deliver Bagudu as the APC presidential candidate and Fayemi as his running mate.
According to the APC group, the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, is reportedly backing the governors in their plot.

The group said, “Governor Mohammed Badaru Abubakar of Jigawa State, Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State, Governor Atiku Bagudu of Kebbi State and their other desperate allies including serving ministers have perfected plans to ensure that Senator Sani Musa was imposed as APC National Chairman alongside other lackeys that would be named to other positions at the convention.
“Senator Sani Musa would, in turn, deliver Bagudu as APC presidential flag bearer and Fayemi as his running mate.
“They have cooked up what they called unity list to package their plot as something positive and desirable for the party and the country when the contrary is the case.
“Sadly, things are now clearer. The governors in question never bothered about what stakeholders thought, wanted or demanded because for them the national convention is a fait accompli.
“At this point, it is fair to point out that the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, is with them alongside a few unpatriotic ministers that are equally playing overlords in their states.”
