In a bid to foster unity and cohesion within the All Progressives Congress (APC), the National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje, has called upon members of the party in the South-East region to reconcile and forgive past grievances.
Ganduje made this appeal during a stakeholders meeting held in Owerri, Imo State, where he emphasized the importance of unity in achieving the party’s goals. He urged members to support the newly appointed South-East APC coordinator, Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State, in efforts to unite the party in the region.
Despite the absence of some prominent South-East APC leaders at the meeting, including Ken Nnamani, Chris Ngige, and Orji Uzor Kalu, Ganduje stressed the need for reconciliation and collaboration among all members.
In his address, Ganduje commended the success of Governor Uzodimma in Imo State and highlighted the upcoming e-registration exercise as part of the party’s initiatives to strengthen its grassroots presence. He reiterated the party’s commitment to producing the next President of Nigeria and urged members to work towards this goal.
Governor Uzodimma echoed Ganduje’s sentiments, emphasizing the importance of unity and progress in the South-East. He pledged to lead efforts to reconcile APC members across the region and called for support for President Bola Tinubu’s policies and programmes.
Other speakers at the event, including Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Benjamin Kalu, and Senator Izunaso, emphasized the need for cooperation and solidarity within the party. They acknowledged Governor Uzodimma’s contributions to APC’s strength in Imo State and the wider South-East region.
