The national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje, has expressed confidence that Rivers state will soon be under party’s control. 

Speaking at an event in Abuja, Ganduje emphasised that the party’s chapter in Rivers state would be “rebuilt and repositioned” to establish a stronghold in the state. 

Ganduje made this statement when Dr. Dawari Ibietela George, the 2023 governorship candidate of the Action Alliance (AA), officially rejoined the APC.

During their discussion, the leaders focused on rebuilding the party’s Rivers state chapter and making it a platform to effectively serve the people of the state and the country. 

Ganduje highlighted the party’s commitment to embracing diverse interests while ensuring fairness. 

He described George as a “big fish” and commended his political acumen, expressing confidence in his ability to strengthen the party’s influence.

“Rivers State will be completely APC,” Ganduje declared, underscoring his expectations from George’s return to the party. He welcomed George and assured him that a robust structure would be established to accommodate him and other returning members. 

“You are now equal members with every other member of the party. We are bent on widening democracy in the country,” Ganduje added.

The event at the APC national headquarters saw the attendance of several prominent party figures, including members of the National Working Committee, such as Chief Hon Victor Giadom, Vice Chairman South-South, Hon Titsi Ganama, the 2023 APC Deputy Governorship Candidate in Adamawa State, and several former colleagues of Dr. George in the House of Representatives. 

Among them were Hon Bimbo Daramola, Hon Bello Ibrahim, Hon Nadu Karibo, and Hon Robinson Uwak. Barr. Tonnie Anierohwom, AA’s 2023 Deputy governorship candidate in Rivers state, was also officially received into the APC. 

The party leaders from Rivers state gathered to witness and welcome George and his team back to the party.

Earlier, Dr. George paid a thank-you visit to the National Chairman of the Action Alliance, Chief Ken Udeze, to officially inform him of his decision to return to the APC. 

Udeze appreciated the visit, commending George for the courtesy of updating the party on his political moves. 

He remarked: “The respect and cordiality we share will remain positively memorable for both of us.”

Udeze also commended George and his team for their dedication and contributions to the growth of the Action Alliance, noting that their efforts in the party’s development would leave an indelible mark.
