A Faction, by definition, and by contemplation of law, is a situation where a political party has two parallel national executives.
That being so, it means in effect, that all those senators who defected from APC, including Senate President Bukola Saraki himself, ought to vacate their seats, or have their seats declared vacant in line with the provision of our electoral Act.
A mere intra-party disagreement does not amount to a faction. It is unfortunate that our democracy is being bastardized
By adopting that name, members of RAPC declared themselves an entirely different body from APC, and to that extent, ineligible to retain their seats in the NASS because they were not registered by INEC, neither did they contest election under the name RAPC.
