As the momentum towards the official start of campaign for the 2023 general elections builds up nationwide, National Chairman, All Progressives Congress (APC), Sen. Abdullahi Adamu, has urged members of the party and its supporters to avoid creating crisis and disunity within the APC.
Adamu issued the exhortation at the APC national headquarters in Abuja on Tuesday 30 August, 2022 while receiving a petition addressed to the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party from former Senate President Ken Nnamani regarding the crisis bedeviling the Enugu State wing of the APC.
The APC national chairman pledged that the NWC would look into the Nnamani petition and addressed the crisis in the Enugu APC.
Nnamani said the delegation submitted the petition as elders of the Party in the state to notify the party’s national chairman and NWC on developments in Enugu APC which required urgent intervention.
Signatories to the petition include Nnamani; Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Geoffrey Onyeama; former Governor of Enugu State, Sullivan Chime; General JOJ Okoloagu; Sen. Ayogu Eze; Chief Gbazuagu Nweke Gbazuagu; Barr. Eugene Odo; Barr. Eugene Odo; Barr. Ifeanyi Nwoga; Chief Onyemuche Nnamani and Director-General, Voice of Nigeria, Osita Okechukwu
However, Adamu seized on the occasion to caution party members against creating crisis in the APC.
His words: “I assure you that because of the respect I and the National Working Committee have for you, we are going to take a look at the petition. We will invite those necessary among the leadership of our party in the state so that we can chart the best way forward.
“In the course of trying to solve existing problems, we should avoid creating new problems. That is very important. The election is by the corner, we don’t want to open the Pandora’s box to the extent that we have more problems and then cannot address the problems before the elections. Whatever we do, we are going to do with utmost care.”
