The All Progressives Congress (APC) has shifted its State Congresses from Saturday, Oct. 2, to Saturday, Oct. 16.
Sen. John Akpanudoedehe, National Secretary, APC Caretaker and Extra-ordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) said this in a statement on Wednesday in Abuja.
He said an updated timetable and schedule of activities and guidelines for the conduct of the State Congresses would be released to the public in due course.
Meanwhile, members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) loyal to Governor Dapo Abiodun in Ijebu-Ode Local Government Area have taken to the street to protest the alleged substitution of their names as executive officers in the recent APC ward and local government congresses.
The Abiodun loyalists on Wednesday besieged the Ijebu-Ode Local Government secretariat, chanting, “Say no to kangaroo exco.”
“We are the majority, minority cannot rule over majority. Our congresses were supervised by INEC officials. We say no to kangaroo exco. Consensus is based on majority. These other people are just two per cent. Save APC, Dapo Abiodun. Ijebu-Ode is boiling. We want the local government Chairman to know that this is a peaceful protest of all the 11 wards in Ijebu-Ode. We want to show our grievances that the majority in Ijebu-Ode will not accept any kangaroo exco,” the protesters yelled as they gathered at the local government secretariat.
