The National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, Senator Ajibola Basiru, has come out to say that the recent resignation of former Chairman of the party, Abdullahi Gandunje, will not lead to any crisis in the APC.
He recently revealed that the party members have been commending Ganduje for repositioning the APC while he was the National Chairman.
According to him, the ruling party has grown in leaps and bounds since their joint election on 3rd August, 2023, and Ganduje’s impact will be a lasting one.
He added that Ganduje’s resignation as National Chairman will not be the first for the ruling party, so people should not expect his exit to lead to any crisis.
His words, “If you look at the statement issued by the party, he was commended for the efforts he made in repositioning the party. Under his watch, we have more states coming into the party and administratively, the party was strengthened since our joint election as the National Chairman and the National Secretary on 3rd August, 2023.
And this is not the first time that the party’s official has resigned. It is upon the resignation of Senator Abdullahi Adamu as National Chairman and Senator Iyiola Omisore that we assumed office on 3rd August 2023. So the resignation of Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje does not portend any crisis. It is speculation.
Adeleke is not joining our party. I know that as of today, decamping is not on board. Although APC is a beautiful bride for anybody that wants to join, I must say here that as a party man and an established politician, I would say that I am one of the people that is extremely loyal to Mr President.
Notwithstanding that I may be nursing an ambition to be Governor of Osun State, whatever President Bola Tinubu says stands on the issue. Because he knows the road, we can afford to follow him blindly.
He will take decisions from the position of wisdom, and from the position that will advance the larger interest of the progressives and family.”
WOW.
