The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has debunked media reports that there were parallel congresses in some states of the federation, owing to internal crisis in the party in the affected states. The National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi in a statement issued on Monday said that there was no such thing as parallel congress.
“The only congress recognised by the Party is that conducted in accordance with the Party constitution, which was organised by the congress committee charged by the Party to organise such congress.
We therefore regard any so-called parallel congresses as exercise in futility and attempt to cause confusion in the Party. We wish to reiterate that any Party member who has any genuine grievances regarding the congresses should channel such through the Appeals Committee in their respective states.”
