Crisis hits APC as 20,000 members reportedly resign from party

Reports indicate that twenty thousand member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kwara state have renounced their membership.

According to The Nation, the Kwara Central APC senatorial chair, Abdulfatai AbdulRaman said, the members relinquished their party membership to form Kwara Third Force.

He blamed the numerous problems in the party as the reason for the members leaving the APC in Kwara.

Among those who left include local government party chairmen, women and youth leaders, ward chairmen as well as APC stalwarts across all the 16 local government areas in the state.

The politician alleged that the just concluded APC membership registration and revalidation in the state was a means to suppress many members, this was reported by Daily Trust.

He said:

“A grand design that denied majority of party members the opportunity to register and revalidate their membership across the state is a 2023 permutation agenda. We can never cross our fingers and watch the game from the sideline.''
