A chieftain of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Alhaji Abu Onaji, has called on the national body of the party to urgently wade into the factional crisis rocking the party in Kogi state.
Onaji made the call on Wednesday in Lokoja while interacting with newsmen on the crisis leading to two separate interim committees in the APC in Kogi state.
He said despite the directive from the national body that Prince Audu should be a member of the state interim committee, while Ocholi remained at the national secretariat as the deputy legal adviser, the duo were busy struggling for the leadership of the party in the state.
According to him, instead of them to use their positions and connections to create a conducive atmosphere for members of the APC to come together and work for the betterment of the party at the forthcoming elections, they are busy dividing the members.
Onaji, who called on the National Secretariat of the party not to turn a deaf ear over what is happening in APC in the state, appealed to the body to come out and place members where they belongs.
“It is going to be a difficult task because the seating governor has built a stone wall around the government and it will require the use of big hammer or bulldozer by the APC to pull the wall down because at any level in the state the governor has foot soldiers that are ready to return him for second term.”
