APC cautions state chapters against swearing in illegal executive committees
All Progressives Congress (APC) has cautioned all State Caretaker Committees against swearing in executives that were not elected by a Congress Committee designated by the party’s Headquarters.
APC Caretaker National Secretary, Senator John Akpanudoedehe stated this, Friday, when he inaugurated the party’s Committees for the Local Government Congresses set to hold on September 4, this year.
Senator Akpanudoedehe also reiterated that the APC would not tolerate any member who takes the party to court.
“We also use this opportunity to reiterate the resolution of NEC of our party to severely sanction members and their sponsors who take the party to court. His Excellency (Hon) Mai Mala Buni is determined to carry out to the letter the instructions of our leader, President Muhammadu Buhari, which is to rebuild the party, bottom-up. The process has reached an advanced ground stage.
“Rest assured that your assignment, as well as the earlier Ward Congresses nationwide, is legally protected. We are on solid ground.
“Any State Caretaker Committee who swears in any person or group of persons who are not elected through a congress conducted by the designated National Congress Committee of the Party is null, void and of no effect. However, where there are still complaints, the CECPC would be fair to all” he said.
Akpanudoedehe urged the committee members to go to their various states of primary assignment with confidence, dignity, commitment and pride.
