Nigeria's Sports Minister, Solomon Dalung, has shared his personal opinion on why there is strife between the leadership of the All Progressive Congress, APC.
Speaking on Thursday, he pointed out that "APC started as amalgamation of different political groups then graduated into a mass movement and formed the government."
“The significance of this was that these are political systems that are an embodiment of diverse interests.
“Now, the management of that interests is very critical, but the challenge the party and the government is facing is that the government itself inherited a situation where it has more challenges of fixing the country, and so nothing or no good attention at all would have trickled down along the line in view of the economic constraints.
“That is enough to stir bitterness in the party and this can give birth to crisis,” he said.
He then appealed to warring factions in the party to sheath their swords and embrace unity.
Currently, there is a feud between APC leader Bola Tinubu, and its national chairman, John Odigie Oyegun.
