\"\"Analysts have argued whether the All Progressives Congress (APC) is indeed the masses\u2019 party as its members have claimed.<\/strong><\/em> On Channels Television\u2019s breakfast programme, Sunrise, members of the newly registered party, Osita Okechukwu and Ife Oyedele as well as a lecturer at the University of Lagos, Dr Dele Ashiru discussed the party\u2019s politics and controversial manifesto. Mr Ashiru said that he expected the party to have conducted several sessions with different groups in the society, especially groups comprising the masses, to feel the pulse of the people. In his opinion, the formation of the APC should have been a concerted effort born of the wishes of the people. APC supporter, Ife Oyedele countered this argument by saying that \u201cNigerians have Ph.D in grumbling\u201d and \u201cvery few Nigerians have a primary school leaving certificate in offering service.\u201d Urging the general populace to register with the party he said \u201cwhat APC is saying is this is your opportunity, you have to come in.\u201d He called on Nigerians in different fields to participate in governance as politics determines the quality of life they can live. He added that “politics determines how much affection you can shower on your wife and children and home. It determines when next you can have your baby, which school your children go to, how long and well you can live. The quality of food you eat. In his contribution, Osita Okechukwu said that the leadership of the party has decided to conduct a biometric registration for all intending members. This, he said, will ensure that both old and new politicians have the same level playing ground. This is \u201cto avoid the rancor of internal democracy\u201d which caused CPC and ACN to lose elections in some states. <\/p>\n
