APC Primary Disputes Driven by Ambition, Says Sulaiman

Prof. Wale Sulaiman, a former governorship aspirant for the APC in Kwara State, stated that the ongoing disputes within the party regarding the governorship primaries are motivated by personal ambition rather than the interests of the people.

In an interview, he lamented that political discussions have shifted focus from addressing critical state issues such as insecurity, unemployment, and poor infrastructure to individual aspirations for power. Sulaiman criticized the behavior of political leaders, likening it to "grown men fighting like schoolchildren" and stressed the importance of engaging with the public on pressing issues rather than post-primary disputes.

He noted that the current political climate negatively impacts the state, with residents facing insecurity and economic challenges. Sulaiman expressed confidence that the APC would remain united ahead of the 2027 governorship elections, asserting that the party's performance would be judged by the people based on their experiences with healthcare, education, and infrastructure.
