The National Conscience Party, NCP, has stated that the those decamping from the PDP or any other party to the All Progressives Congress, APC, lack political ideology. The party noted that there is no difference between members of the Peoples Democratic Party and the All Progressives Congress. The National General-Secretary, NCP, Mr. Ayodele Akele, while speaking with newsmen recently said it would be illogical for the NCP, whose manifesto has ‘free education for all’ to merge with the APC. He said fees paid in state-owned tertiary institutions in APC states, especially Lagos were very high. He said while the opposition party was criticising the Minister of Aviation for purchasing two armoured cars for N255m, the Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola, allegedly bought two armoured vehicle for over N300m. Speaking further, he advised the law enforcement agencies to focus on members of the ruling class who are extremely corrupt with no sense of discipline. Akele said, “We don’t share similar ideology. You want us to associate with the APC (that is) pretending to be for the masses? Let us start from the educational policy of Lagos State. We (NCP) have a focus: free education at all levels. “How do we explain going to APC, where the least fee in Lagos State University is over N300, 000 per student, while the governor enjoyed free education at the University of Benin when he was a student. This is irreconcilable. “Is it not more honourable to maintain our integrity than to join them? Look at the characters; the people in the APC.
