All Progressives Governors under the aegis of Progressives Governors Forum will on Monday converge on Owerri, the Imo State capital to fine-tune strategies on how to win the forth coming general elections.
The event will also provide the partys Presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari an opportunity to give an insight into how an APC-led Federal Government will operate.
This was contained in a statement signed by the Director-General of the PGF, Salihu Lukman in Abuja, on Thursday.
According to the Forum, a session, under the theme, March for a New Nigeria will be chaired by the APCs Presidential candidate, Gen Muhammadu Buhari, who is billed to deliver a paper on how a prospective APC-led federal government will work with state governments.
In addition to the presidential and vice presidential candidates, governors and governorship candidates, the partys leadership is also expected to be in attendance as the APC fine-tunes its electoral strategies to win the presidential and state governorship elections.
The PGF said the event also represents part of the APCs strategies of engaging with Nigerians and sharing successful policies and programmes among states governed by the All Progressives Congress.
The conference will also provide a platform for in-depth interaction between the progressive governors and some professional groups regarding the relationship between the recommended policies and the reality of dwindling resources in the country as well as the issue of insurgency and how to regain normalcy in the troubled areas.
The statement read in part: Chairman of the PGF and Imo state governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, and his Lagos state counterpart, Babatunde Raji Fashola, will also speak on the imperative peaceful and credible elections.
It also said, Governors Kashim Shettima, Rauf Aregbesola and Adams Oshiomhole of Borno, Osun and Edo states, respectively, will speak on issues ranging from plans for a post Boko Haram reconstruction, strategies for sustaining governance in times of dwindling resources and the effects of PDPs mishandling of the economy and its consequences on state finances.

APC govs converge on Owerri Monday
The Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj, General Muhammadu Buhari(retd.), has said the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan must respect the wishes of Nigerians for credible polls.
Buhari said this while addressing Eze Ndigbo of the 19 northern states and Abuja at his campaign office, in Abuja, on Friday.
The APC candidate said he had realised the fact that multi-party democracy remained the best form of government since the collapse of the Soviet Union.
According to him, ordinary folks did not leave him alone to enjoy his exit from power after he was released from detention even when they knew he was not rich.
Buhari said, I was sitting at home after leaving detention; I thought people will leave me alone because they know I am not rich. I dont even own a filling station not to talk of oil blocks.
So, I thought I lost their sympathy but people kept on coming to me; there was nothing I could do. And then I speculated that maybe if I join partisan politics, I will get into a position to be heard.
He, however, said democracy, as the best form of government, will only make meaningful impact when the government respects the rights of citizens to elect those who govern them.
The APC candidate added that there was an element of rebellion in every human being, making it imperative for a credible process to be put in place to allow people exercise their franchise.
This, he believed, would guarantee peace.
Buhari said, Let the government respect Nigerians as individuals, allow them to choose those they want to represent them and to lead them and Nigerians will be surprised to see how peaceful this country is going to be.

Jonathan must respect the wishes of Nigerians Buhari
Lai Mohammed
The All Progressives Congress has said it has uncovered another plot being hatched against the leadership of the party by sympathisers of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party.
According to the APC, the fresh plot was to import a huge amount of money in US dollars through some people who would then claim that they were hired as cash couriers by the APC leaders.
This allegation was contained in a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday by the APC National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed.
The party said the implicating dollars would be ferried into the country through the Seme or Idi-Iroko, or any other border posts, anytime from now.
However, the PDP dismissed the allegations as baseless.
The Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Alhaji Abdullahi Jalo, said, The APC has taken propaganda to a ridiculous level. We will not dignify them with a response because this allegation lacks substance.
Lai Mohammeds statement read in part: Their plan is that once the couriers who have been coached on their assignment are arrested by the Nigerian security agents, they will point accusing fingers at some top APC leaders who supposedly commissioned them to bring in the money to be used for the forthcoming elections.
The plotters of the evil plan will then order the arrest of the leaders, with a view to damaging their credibility and destabilising them ahead of the elections.
According to the APC, as many evil plots as were being hatched by desperadoes that were bent on setting the country ablaze just to realise their ambition would be exposed because Nigerians themselves, within and outside the government, had decided to be extra- vigilant.

Mr. Taiwo Olatunbosun
The All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State said it has printed and distributed 250,000 copies of the audio and video recordings revealing the details of how the June 21, 2014 governorship election was allegedly rigged in favour of Governor Ayodele Fayose.
A statement by the State Publicity Secretary of the party, Taiwo Olatubosun, said the recording revealed a grand conspiracy coordinated by some officers of the Nigerian Army.
He said the party took the step to let the world know the truth about Ekiti election miracle where a governor with unrivaled sterling performance failed to win a single local government out of the 16 local government areas of the state, including his own.
He said it was giving victory to a man, who two years earlier, had lost a senatorial election in the state.
The statement read, Details of corrupt practices by soldiers, as contained in the tape, lent credence to the inclusion of the military as a defendant at the Ekiti State Election Petitions Tribunal, challenging the return of Fayose as the winner of the election.
In the tape, secretly recorded by Army Captain Sagir Koli, voices of participants in the election fraud were heard talking about operational details and giving instructions on how to help Fayose to win the election. Koli went on exile after releasing the tape.
Another group, a non-governmental organisation, had two weeks ago produced 200,000 copies and distributed them around the world with copies sent to the United Nations, African Union and ECOWAS secretariats.
Nigerians and indeed decent people of the world will hear of how a Brigadier-General in the Nigerian Army was thoroughly disgraced by brigands and lawless individuals in the PDP, who should ordinarily quiver when an army corporal gives orders.
Nigerians will hear a Brigadier-General talking of how he set up Strike Forces to be unleashed on APC leaders and supporters in cowing them down to submission in order to ensure victory for Fayose.
