Only a few will bother to envy the APC especially going by the happenstances in the last few months. Almost in all the States, the self-styled PROGRESSIVES are entangled in one political wahala or the other- courtesy of the leadership style of the President, Buhari and the I- Know – too-much Chairman, Oshiomhole.
