This would entail organizing a free and fair convention to produce an effective and committed leadership and have the mechanism and the political will to handle post-convention issues satisfactorily. The tide however changed with the verdict that also rekindled hopes of a vibrant opposition. For example, the Southwest and the South- South zones, which have insisted on occupying the post, are yet to reach a consensus in less than 20 days to the convention. This has continued to generate heat and also portrayed the party as being unserious, despite the goodwill awaiting it from those that are disenchanted with the ruling APC. This has always been the challenge with the zone when it comes to politics.
