Published

on

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has reacted to the widespread defection of it’s members in the National Assembly, saying that the party was still in control of the nation despite the situation.

National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi said that the party leadership had tried to reconcile the defectors but they choose to go ostensibly for “different considerations beyond their grievances”.

Abdullahi, in the statement said that APC remains in firm control of 25 states of the 36 states of the federation and maintains a clear majority in the federal House of Representatives and state assemblies.

“In the last couple of weeks our Party leaders have worked to stave off this situation as responsible Party leaders would do.

“It would appear however that the individuals involved have different considerations beyond the grievances that they were willing to discuss and which our leaders were willing to address.

“As a truly democratic party, we respect the right of every citizen to political association. Therefore, we urge our members to remain calm as we continue to work hard to position our party strongly for the next general elections.
