BREAKING: APC Membership Registration/Revalidation Exercise Suspended In Delta

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has suspended the membership registration and revalidation exercise for Delta State, The News Guru reports.

Chairman of the National Registration and Revalidation Committee of the APC and Niger State Gov. Abubakar Sani Bello announced the suspension.

Bello said the suspension was to give room for the resolution of some pending issues the party is faced with in the State.

Recall that the state chapter of the APC has been embroiled in a leadership crisis with different factions arising from the camps of Ovie Omo-Agege, the deputy-senate president; Festus Keyamo, Minister of State, Labour and Employment, and Great Ogboru.

The Delta Chapter of the APC flagged off the party’s membership registration/revalidation exercise on February 9.

However, there have been reports from different quarters that the process that had barely begun is marred.

The exercise was said to have ended in violence after Jones Erue, state APC caretaker committee chairman, allegedly removed some names from the nomination list to favour a faction in the party.

Many stakeholders of the party are said to have shunned the kickoff of the exercise in the state at the party secretariat in Asaba.
