The lawmaker representing Oyo South in the Senate, Sen. Adesoji Akanbi has revealed that there is no better alternative to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
He was reacting to report that the Coalition for Nigeria, CN, third-force political group being championed by former President Olusegun Obasanjo, appears to be a major platform that has continued to attract prominent and other members of the National Assembly.
Akanbi, who is a former member of the House of Representatives, explained that he would remain in the ruling party until it was clear that the coalition was a better alternative.
According to him, the coalition has yet to produce a well-defined agenda.
He stated, “The coalition is immature. Baba has raised it, thinking that both the APC and the PDP have no ideological base again. But I am a party person and APC runs in my blood.
“We know that there are problems here and there but we really want to see the picture of the alternative that will provide better governance for Nigeria. If we have a better option, why not? A lot of Nigerians will embrace it; we will embrace it; I will embrace it.”
