Jack-Rich Urges APC to Honor Founding Members

Tein Jack-Rich, a businessman and politician, issued a warning in Abuja regarding the All Progressives Congress (APC), urging the party not to sideline its founding members in favor of new defectors. He submitted his interest in the nomination form to contest for the River West senatorial seat on the APC platform.

Jack-Rich stated that while the influx of new members is beneficial for the party's growth, it is crucial to honor the legacy of long-standing members who have supported the party through difficult times. He emphasized that these members should not be pushed aside as the party gains power.

Jack-Rich, who has 28 years of experience in the oil and gas industry, expressed confidence in winning the senatorial seat, highlighting River West's strategic economic importance as a major oil-producing district. He aims to leverage his experience to contribute meaningfully to legislative work, particularly in the energy sector.
