A CHIEFTAIN of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, in Abia State, Dr. David Onuoha-Bourdex, has told the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, to resolve the crisis ravaging the party urgently because the four years mandate given to it is not eternity.
The APGA chieftain specifically told the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, to use the four weeks recess to resolve all the impasse in the National Assembly so that they will hit the ground running when they resume for plenary on July 21.
Dr. Onuoha-Bourdex told Saturday Vanguard that the work before the Eighth National Assembly is enormous and that allowing the politics of who becomes what in the two chambers to linger would disappoint Nigerians who look forward to new and better ways of doing things in the country.
He advised that instead of dashing the expectations of the masses by fighting over issues of personal positions, they should settle down to review the activities of the preceding assembly with a view to learning from their mistakes and charting a path for progressive change.
The Abia North Senatorial candidate in the March 28 election, urged the two chambers to come up with modalities in some critical areas that require immediate attention for the strengthening of the Nigerian federation especially the electoral system.
