APC Clarifies Delay in Welcoming Former River State Governor Amid Religious Considerations

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has explained the delay in officially welcoming Siminalayi Fubara, the former River State Governor, into the party. The delay is attributed to strategic considerations, particularly respecting the upcoming Ramadan fast and religious sensitivities in the region.

The APC Chairman in the state dismissed speculations linking the delay to internal party dynamics or the influence of former Governor Nyesom Wike. The party assured its faith in Governor Fubara and emphasized taking deliberate steps to integrate new members while respecting cultural and religious differences across Nigeria.
