Niger APC Holds Emergency Meeting to Address Grievances

The Niger State chapter of the APC convened an emergency stakeholders' meeting to reconcile aggrieved members after several former political office holders lost in the recent primary elections. The meeting, held at the Governor's House, was led by Governor Moham Umaru Bago, who emphasized the importance of every APC member contributing to the party's success in the upcoming elections.

He described the actions of some members intending to join the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as unacceptable and urged unity within the party. Bago acknowledged the challenges faced during the primaries and highlighted efforts made to reconcile aggrieved members, stating that these efforts have already yielded positive results.

He also mentioned the need for support from President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. However, Alhaji Mikel Al Amin Emitosahi, a leader of the Niger Rescue Movement, stated that they would not reverse their decision to leave the APC and would work to unseat Governor Bago in the next gubernatorial election.
