The Chairman APC Caretaker Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee and Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni, has congratulated members of the party over the successful and peaceful conduct of the ward congress across the country.
The Chairman said reports reaching his office from across the states indicated that the congress was generally successful and peaceful.
He said, “I wish to congratulate us all for the peaceful and successful conduct of the ward Congress.
“The massive turn out of members in the Congress reflects the success of the membership registration and revalidation exercise.
“It also reflects the unity and confidence of our members in the repositioned APC and its leadership”.
He further assured party members that their choice of leaders at the ward congress and indeed, subsequent congresses would be respected adding that the party had put some measures in place to check and rectify anomalies arising from the congress.
“We are committed to building a strong internal democracy to give the party a strong leadership that are genuinely elected by the people,” he said.
The governor in a statement signed by his Director General, Press and Media Affairs Mamman Mohammed maintained that the congresses would give ownership of the party to the members through the bottom-top approach and urged aggrieved parties to seek redress through constituted channels in the party.
“We will be fair, just and transparent in handling every complaint for justice to be done and the people’s choice respected,” he added.
The Chairman also assured that the Caretaker Committee will review the just concluded ward congress to improve on the forthcoming local and state government congresses.
