A former National Legal Adviser of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Muiz Banire, has declared that the party would soon implode.
He said APC is known for violation of rule of law and any organisation with disdain for rule of law cannot stand the test of time.

Banire, a former Commissioner for Justice in Lagos, in an interview on a Lagos-based Radionow monitored by our correspondent, said, “Certainly the APC will implode.
“The foundation of the party itself is weak. We have several people, tendencies coming together to acquire power but they are unable to synergise. Conflict is tearing the party apart.”
He noted that the leadership architecture of the APC is largely in the hands of the governor, saying that explained why the Mai Mala Buni-led caretaker committee endorsed the faction controlled by state governors in all APC states.
He recalled that he fought the party’s leadership as national legal adviser to follow the rule of law which they refused, saying he quit when his tenure expired having realized he was keeping a “bad company.”
He said with the level of rivalry and internal wrangling in the party, it would be difficult for it to survive.
