The ruling All progressives Congress (APC) on Thursday issued a threat to sanction any party member that takes the APC to court.  The national secretary of the Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC), Sen. John James Akpanudoedehe, at a briefing in Abuja, indicated that the

National Chairman of the APC Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC), Governor Mai Mala Buni of Yobe State thanked all the Chairmen, Secretaries and members of the various congress committees for volunteering to serve the party at the time of renewal and re-engineering.

Akpanudoedehe noted that as President Muhammadu Buhari would always admonish his envoys, the APC national leadership urged the committee members to go to their various states of primary assignment with confidence, dignity, commitment and pride.

“We also use this opportunity to reiterate the resolution of NEC of our party to severely sanction members and their sponsors who take the party to court,” Akpanudoedehe declared. He maintained that Governor Mai Mala Buni is determined to carry out to the letter, the instructions of the party leader, President Muhammadu Buhari, which is to rebuild the party, button up. The process has reached an advanced ground stage, Akpanudoedehe said.

He assured that the assignment members on the state congresses, as well as the earlier Ward Congresses nationwide, is legally protected. “We are on solid ground,” he said.

Consequently, the CECPC ratified and adopted the results of the party’s earlier nationwide Ward Congresses held on Saturday July 31st, 2021. The party however, warned that any State Caretaker Committee who swears in any person or group of persons who are not elected through a congress conducted by the designated National Congress Committee of the Party is null, void and of no effect. The party noted that, however, where there are still complaints, the CECPC would be fair to all.

“Accordingly, the CECPC hereby directs you all to go and conduct nation-wide Local Government (LGA) Congresses on Saturday, September 4, 2021, as contained in the official timetable/schedule of activities released by the party,” Akpanudoedehe declared.
