The concerned APC group has warned that the Leadership of the ruling party must do everything to hold the party's national convention slated for February 2022.

Concerned APC, is a political group under the aegis of the All Progressives Congress (APC), while reacting to a letter credited to the Chief Whip of the Senate , Senator Orji Uzor Kalu where he urged the National Chairman Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee, Gov Mai Mala Buni and members of the planning committee to consider postponing the party’s national convention earlier scheduled to hold in February next year.

The group on sunday said that Senator kalu was not a member of the party when it was formed and has no right to say convention should not hold. "He has PDP to fall back to if the court give judgement against the actions of Buni led caretaker in the future while we dont have where to go, because APC is all we have" therefore other caretaker members should rise and save the party before is too late.

“It is our hope and believe that the Caretaker Committee will not employ any delay tactics that will result in the need to further postpone the national convention from the February 2022 date as it has done in the past where its six months mandate has extended to almost one and half year. The major, if not the only, task before the Caretaker Committee as of today is the conduct of the national convention and this must be pursued with all vigour and seriousness it deserves.

“While we await the release of the full timetable for the national convention, the Concerned APC Stakeholders reiterate its earlier position that the upcoming national convention must not only be free, fair and transparent but must be seen to be so by all party men and women. The convention must be open, credible and devoid of any form of imposition in whatever guise. It is time the APC again subject the emergence of its leadership to the will and consent of the majority of party members rather than the backdoor consensus arrangements of any bloc or group.

“The Concerned APC, in its avowed commitment to ensuring that our party is returned to its core progressive ideals and foundation, will continue to watch the processes leading to the convention closely and ensure that only individuals with requisite pedigree emerged as new leaders of the APC”

As the Caretaker Committee meet tomorrow, we appeal to members of that body to resist further temptation to postpone National convention in the interest of larger party members.

We equally appeal to Mr President to call the caretaker to order before is too late.

Apc convention won’t hold in the month of February next year. They will keep on extending it till December 2022.

Why is Buni and his backers afraid of a national convention? These guys have been in charge of the party for close to 2 years now and they still want to hang on illegally till when?

Close to two years? Please we should allow Buni to take his time and give birth to a credible convention than rush in and rush out convention.
Buni has shown capacity and if he and his team think the convention is October 2022, it's in the best interest of the country and Nigeria.
