Opposition Parties disunited because they lack Father figure like Buhari – Lawan

Senate President Ahmad Lawan has described President Muhammadu Buhari as a father figure for the ruling all Progressives Congress APC.

The senate president described Buhari as a father that ensures disagreements are settled among party members, and that everybody remains united. He said opposition parties are probably disunited because they lack a father figure like the President.

He said this on Thursday after the leadership of the national assembly met with the president ahead of the All Progressives Congress (APC) national convention.

The senate president stated that Buhari emphasised the need for members of the ruling party to be united ahead of the exercise.

.“I want to say that this meeting with Mr President has given us more energy. We believe that there is a father, at least in our party, there is a president who will ensure that once there are disagreements he is able to call everybody to order and ensure that the family continues to remain united and that is what we have been able to achieve over the years,” Lawan said.
