2027: Kebbi APC Warns Members Against Anti-Party Activities, Secret Meetings

The warning was issued by the Secretary of the Contact and Reconciliation Committee established by Governor Nasir Idris, Ahmed Umar Faruk, while briefing journalists in Birnin Kebbi on Tuesday.

Faruk disclosed that the committee had completed a 10-day engagement across the state’s 21 local government areas as part of efforts to address internal disagreements and reconcile aggrieved members.

He said the committee met with former commissioners, former members of the State and National Assemblies, as well as other party stakeholders who expressed dissatisfaction over issues arising from the party primaries.

According to him, the exercise provided an opportunity for aggrieved members to present their complaints and seek redress through the party’s reconciliation process.

Faruk urged APC leaders at the state, local government and ward levels to maintain regular communication with members and ensure that grievances were addressed promptly before they developed into major internal disputes.

He warned that members must avoid actions capable of creating divisions within the party, particularly clandestine meetings and activities that could weaken its structures ahead of the elections.

“The party would not tolerate actions capable of undermining its unity ahead of the 2027 general elections,” he said.

The committee’s engagement was aimed at strengthening party cohesion and ensuring that members who felt sidelined or dissatisfied with the outcome of previous political processes were given an opportunity to air their concerns.

The development comes as political parties intensify preparations for the 2027 general elections, with internal reconciliation and mobilisation becoming important issues within party structures.
