A former governorship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kwara State, Prof. Wale Sulaiman, has expressed confidence that the party will retain power in the 2027 general elections despite the controversy surrounding its governorship primary.

Sulaiman said disagreements arising from the primary would not diminish the APC’s electoral prospects, expressing optimism that aggrieved members would eventually reconcile in the interest of the party.

Speaking with journalists in Ilorin, the renowned neurosurgeon described the current dispute within the party as unfortunate, saying political discussions should focus more on governance and the welfare of the people than on personal ambitions.

He noted that while the APC governorship primary generated differing opinions, participants had willingly subjected themselves to the party’s internal processes.
