A former National Legal Adviser of the All Progressives Congress, Dr. Muiz Banire, has congratulated the newly-elected executives of the party.
Banire, in a statement he personally signed on Monday, also encouraged the party to pursue the path of the Rule of Law.
He said in the statement: “To all compatriots, this is to formally announce my disengagement from the National executive council of All progressives congress and to express my gratitude to God and all well wishers.
“Let me state that my seven and half years tenure as the legal adviser of various parties at the National level has been eventful, particularly the last four years wherein we have battled extensively on the recognition and compliance with the rule of law.
“With all sense of humility, I must say that we have progressed but not yet at the ideal level of our dream.
“Therefore, it is my prayer, whilst congratulating the new executive members, that they strive further in attaining this height.
“We need to continue building and strengthening party organs as opposed to individuals.
“As I continuously say, the only option to rule of law is rule of man which breeds nothing other than anarchy.
“I pledge to my well wishers that in the spirit of united action for change, I do not need office to continue the struggle.
“As convener of that formidable group of the cerebral lots, aluta continua….Once again, to God I give the glory as I worship Him exclusively.”
