The caretaker committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has inaugurated a national reconciliation committee for the party ahead of its national convention.
The inauguration was done by Governor Mai Mala Buni of Yobe State and Chairman of the APC caretaker and extraordinary convention planning committee on Monday, October 11, in Abuja.
Explaining that the committee was set up to reconcile members who were aggrieved by the outcome of the party’s congresses, Buni said members of the committee were carefully selected based on their individual track records of excellence, adding that they had served the party with a high sense of commitment and dedication.
Buni charged them to critically examine areas of conflict in the party’s just-concluded ward and local government congress and advance solutions to problems noticed.
He said: “I want to sincerely commend and appreciate you for the great sacrifices you made to the process of rebuilding the party.
“The much anticipated congresses have commenced and progressed with significant successes.
“We have also constituted mechanisms such as the appeal committees to address complaints arising from the conduct of the congresses.
“Your report on resolution of these discrepancies will indicate our readiness as a united and strong family for the national convention.
“Your assignment therefore, has great impact and influence on the convention.”
He also urged members of the committee to remain resolute and dedicated to their assignment with spirit of teamwork.
He urged them to take the interest of the party above personal and selfish interests for APC to remain strong, united as Nigeria’s leading political party.
He added: “The task before this committee is very important and crucial.
“It is to reconcile, harmonise, integrate and unite members of the party.
“The committee is also expected to resolve real or seeming differences and to cement all cracks for us to approach the National Convention with a united front.”
