Those Causing Trouble In Kwara APC Risk Suspension – Abdulrazaq

The Kwara State Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, has said the All Progressives Congress will take a decision on members causing disaffection in the party, adding that they are risking being suspended from the party.

The governor, while speaking in Ilorin at the 2021 empowerment programme of the senator representing Kwara Central at the National Assembly, Dr Ibrahim Oloriegbe on Saturday, said the APC leadership in the state would on Monday (youtoday) take decisive action on the “‘ dissidents, ” who he alleged, have been hatching series of plots from Abuja to halt the APC membership registration through needless litigation. 

He said, “ It has come to our notice that some people were hatching series of plots from Abuja to stop the APC membership registration .

“They went to court to challenge the process when it has already begun . This was designed to frustrate the exercise but we are unperturbed .

“However, we need to sound a note of warning that those fanning ember of disaffection in our party risk suspension.

The APC leadership will take decisive action on them on Monday so that our people can have rest of mind . ”

The governor warned the aggrieved groups which have been waging war against his administration to either retrace their steps or quit the party.

He added that APC would no longer tolerate their ‘pull him down’ attitude.

AbdulRazaq urged members of the ruling party to troop out en mass for the revalidation of membership.

In a reaction, Chief Iyiola Oyedepo, spokesman of the APC Elders caucus loyal to Alhaji Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information and Culture, said the governor was not talking about suspending anyone from the about three factions that made up the APC in the state.

“The governor is threatening to suspend people in the party but I want to ask him if it is we or him that deserves to be suspended from the party. Is it the governor who by convention is the leader of the party that cannot hold members of the party together? He has the opportunity to cement all the four tendencies in the party after the election but he failed to do it,” Oyedepo said.
