The APC advised that Nigerian leaders should conduct themselves in higher standards as a way of ensuring good governance and winning global respect for the country.
In a statement issued in Lagos over the weekend by its Interim National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the resignation of the South Korean prime minister must jolt the conscience of Nigerian officials who had been found wanting when they have found themselves in similar situations.
According to the APC spokesperson, ‘’Until our leaders hold themselves to higher standards, as it is done in other democracies around the world, and take responsibility when necessary, they will continue to perpetuate impunity, celebrate mediocrity and cling to power at all costs, even when it is clear that they are not serving any other interest but theirs.’’

Former Commissioner for Finance, Mr. Bassey Albert Akpan, his Rural Development counterpart, Effiong Abia and the chairmen were fired last week in an exercise packaged as ‘reinvigorating the machinery of government’, but investigations have indicated otherwise.
The Commissioner for Information and Communications, Aniekan Umanah, in a statement announcing the sack of former executive council members and six board chairmen, said it was to further drive the ‘uncommon transformation programme of the state’.
The government had in the statement said: “In view of the need to reinvigorate the machinery of government and drive further the uncommon transformation programme of the state, His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Dr. Godswill Akpabio, CON, has approved a minor cabinet reshuffle.

The IGP vowed to deal with erring politicians caught in the act. The police boss also urged politicians to emulate frontline opposition politician, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari who recently rose in condemnation of terrorist activities in the country.
In a statement signed on his behalf by the Force Public Relations Officer, Frank Mba, the IGP said much as the police is not ignorant of the fundamental rights of the citizens such as the rights to freedom of speech, it will not condone any provocative, divisive and inciting comments that are clearly uncorroborated by facts or evidential proof.
