The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has expressed confidence that it will soon take control of Rivers State.
The National Chairman of the party, Abdullahi Ganduje, stated this at an event on Thursday in Abuja.
Ganduje stressed that the party’s chapter in Rivers State would be rebuilt and repositioned to establish a stronghold in the state.
Ganduje made this statement when the 2023 governorship candidate of the Action Alliance (AA), Dawari Ibietela George, officially rejoined the APC.
During their discussion, the leaders focused on rebuilding the party’s Rivers State chapter and making it a platform to effectively serve the people of the state and the country.
Ganduje highlighted the party’s commitment to embracing diverse interests while ensuring fairness.
He described George as a big fish and commended his political acumen, expressing confidence in his ability to strengthen the party’s influence.
Ganduje welcomed George, assuring him that a robust structure would be established to accommodate him and other returning members.
“Rivers State will be completely APC. You are now equal members with every other member of the party. We are bent on widening democracy in the country,” Ganduje added.
His comment comes amid the ongoing war between the state governor, Sim Fubara, and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, who now serves as FCT Minister under the APC-led government, regarding who controls the party’s structure in the state.
