Fresh cracks have emerged within the Kwara State chapter of the All Progressives Congress as the three senators representing the state called for a review of the party’s recent primary elections and the establishment of a reconciliation committee to address growing grievances among members.
The lawmakers, under the aegis of the Kwara APC Senate Caucus, expressed concern over what they described as the erosion of party cohesion and controversies surrounding the recently concluded governorship, senatorial, House of Representatives and State House of Assembly primaries.
In a communiqué issued on Tuesday after a joint session and signed by Senators Saliu Mustapha (Kwara Central), Oyelola Yisa Ashiru (Kwara South) and Sadiq Umar (Kwara North), the lawmakers said the party was passing through a critical period requiring urgent intervention.
The senators lamented what they described as the exclusion of legitimate stakeholders from key decision-making processes within the party.
“The Caucus observes an erosion of party cohesion. Legitimate stakeholders have been excluded from critical decision-making, breeding grievance where there ought to be consensus,” they said.
