answers – not excuses.”

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is desperately searching for the
cause of its inability to raise their governance beyond plinth level.
There is no doubt that the party has been struggling in its administration of
the country in the past 20 months. As they try to cover one hole another opens.
The fight against corruption which is their biggest strength has been trapped
in the intrinsic contradictions in the regime.
The government has been rolling in and out of series of
embarrassing scandals even as it tries to hold on to the acclaimed status of
being a cleansing government. As the party strives to find its bearings, it has
been groping aimlessly trying to look for whom to blame for its failings. For
two years, it can hardly cough without calling on the past government. Even
when their people face personal domestic problems they try blaming the past
administration.
