  • The APC has said that the demand of the planned hunger protests’ organisers that President Bola Tinubu should scrap the 1999 constitution cannot be met
  • Ajibola Bashiru, the APC national secretary, said that President Tinubu swore to protect the constitution and that he alone
  • According to Bashiru, it was even the 1999 constitution that allowed the protest organisers to stage agitation and changing it will require the efforts of the National and State Assemblies

FCT, Abuja – The All Progressives Congress (APC) has rejected the hunger protest organisers’ demand that President Bola Tinubu scrap the 1999 constitution.

According to APC, after its meeting with state chairmen across the country on Friday, July 26, the organisers’ demand is a “tall order” that President Tinubu cannot carry out.
