JUST IN: APC Sacks Giadom As South-South Chairman

The details of the report of the National Reconciliation Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have emerged.

Naija News reports that the committee on Monday submitted its report to the leadership of the party at the APC Secretariat in Abuja.

The committee was inaugurated on October 12, 2021, to reconcile, harmonize and integrate members of the party in order to cement all cracks and seeming differences.

Speaking with reporters after submitting his committee’s interim report, a former Governor of Nasarawa State, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, disclosed that more work needs to be done to reconcile aggrieved party faithful across the country.

He said the committee has requested for an additional week to explore avenues of achieving total reconciliation of aggrieved members, stressing that they are able to consider no fewer than 47 petitions filed by aggrieved party faithful from various parts of the country.

Adamu, however, said the caretaker committee of the party is at liberty to decide whether to adhere to the recommendation of his committee or not before the conduct of the national convention billed to hold on February 26.

He said: “Reconciliation is a work in progress. Until we get the final report from the national secretariat, we cannot say it is successful. We cannot declare our own work successful. We will be more deceitful if we do so. For us, we can say our work is inconclusive.

“As of today, we still have petitions coming in. People are still trooping in to come and see us. And we cannot in all fairness stop them. Nobody can pronounce with certitude on political conflicts that are based on ego, in some cases, perception. None of us has control over that.”

A member of the party’s Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC), Ken Nnamani, received the report on behalf of Governor Mai Mala Buni.

Nnamani expressed gratitude to Adamu and his committee, stressing that the committee’s findings will contribute in no small measure to ensure a successful convention and the general election.

He gave the assurance that the CECPC will carefully study the report and ensure it is faithfully implemented to improve the unity and strength of the party.

The former Senate President further disclosed that the party now has over 41 million registered members, making it “Africa’s largest party.”

He said: “As you are aware, the party conducted a successful membership registration and revalidation exercise and now proudly has over 41 million membership making APC Africa’s largest political party and Nigeria’s leading party. With this numerical strength, APC remains the party that can confidently win elections with a landslide victory in all the national elections.”
