The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano State has constituted a committee to reconcile aggrieved factions of the party.
This disclosure was made yesterday by Acting APC chairman, Alhaji Abdullahi Abbas.
Abbas noted that the party found it necessary to set up the reconciliation committee in order to ensure unity within the members of the party across the state.
“We felt it necessary to set up the reconciliation committee because even within the Gandujiyya faction, there are factions.
“So, we have set up of the committee to bring sanity and unity to the party,” Abbas said.
The removal of the former state APC Chairman, Alhaji Haruna Doguwa, led to the party being divided into factions.
While one of the factions is with Gov. Abdullahi Ganduje, the other supports former governor of the state, Engr. Rabi’u Kwankwaso.
Abbas, however, explained that the committee, under the leadership of Alhaji Nasiru Aliko-Koki, had been mandated to reconcile the warring factions to ensure peace and unity.
On controversy surrounding his own position, Abbas pointed out that the letter confirming him as acting chairman was presented to him by the Northwest Zonal Chairman, Alhaji Inuwa Abdulkadir.
“Anybody doubting the authenticity of the letter should come and see it.
“The constitution of the party allows for the election of leaders and the same constitution said if he errs, he should be removed,” he said.
Abass said since his appointment as Acting Chairman, the party leaders from all the 44 local government areas of the state had paid their homage to him with he promise to give him all the necessary support.
“The Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Alhaji Kabiru Rurum and members of the Assembly were also here to show their solidarity”, he added.
