350 aggrieved persons meet APC c’ttee in North East

- By Muideen Olaniyi

Governor Umaru Tanko AlMakura of Nasarawa State and Chairman, APC Peace and Reconcilia­tion Committee, North East, says his team received over 350 presentati­ons from aggrieved party members from the zone.

Al-Makura said this, yesterday, while fielding questions from journalist­s shortly after submitting the report of his committee to the Comrade Adams Oshiomhole­led APC National Working Committee (NWC) at the party’s national secretaria­t in Abuja.

The governor, who declined to reveal the recommenda­tions of his committee, said the suggestion­s made focused on critical issues that would guarantee victories for the party.

He expressed confidence that no member would consider leaving the party from the responses they received as the party members in the zone were ‘highly committed, faithful and loyal’, and re-affirmed that APC would sweep the polls in 2019.

“Particular­ly, our President has received tremendous amount of accolades across the states we went to in the zone in spite of complaints they had. I can assure you that Buhari will win this election hands-down in the North-east,” he added.

In his response during the presentati­on, the APC National Chairman, Comrade Oshiomhole, promised the Al-Makura-led committee that the party would act as quickly as possible on the recommenda­tions made after studying the report.

Oshiomhole urged the aggrieved to learn from President Muhammadu Buhari who lost three consecutiv­e elections before he eventually won in 2015.
