Governors’ Forum Should Be Scrapped - APGA

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Victor Umeh, on Tuesday in Abuja called for the scrapping of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF).

Mr. Umeh, who was reacting to the crisis that trailed last Friday’s chairmanship election of the forum, said “the existence of NGF has no constitutional basis’’.

The APGA chairman, who spoke on the sidelines of the launching of a book titled “The making of an oracle’’, said the forum was threatening democracy and peace in the country.

He accused the governors of losing touch with the realities in their respective states partly because of their insatiable crave for power both in their states and at the federal level.
