Trouble As Aggrieved APC Members Insist On Litigations, Threaten Protests (Details)
Some supporters of the All Progressives Congress who are dissatisfied with the conduct of the last Ward Congress of the party have vowed to continue with their cases in court.
This is even as members of the party under the aegis of Concerned APC Members have given notice that they are planning to hold peaceful demonstrations across state chapters.
In separate telephone interviews with our correspondent, in Abuja, on Wednesday, a chieftain of the party in Bauchi State, Mallam Sani Shehu as well as the Spokesperson of the concerned APC members, Abdullahi Dauda, both urged the party to avoid repeating past mistakes.
Shehu, who along with other stakeholders, instituted a court action challenging the conduct of ward congresses, said he and his colleagues were prepared to go up to the Supreme Court should it become necessary to get justice.

He said, “We are in court for a simple reason, we want justice. We are foundation members of the APC; some of us were chairmen and secretaries in our various parties before the merger. We sacrificed our positions to build the party.
“Now, people who did not know how this party was formed, who suddenly found themselves in office today want to foist undemocratic rule on us in a democracy. They sat in one room and came out with a list telling the whole world that ward executives emerged through a consensus. This is wrong, we will not accept it.”
Asked whether they were not scared of expulsion for taking the party to court, he said, “We are in court and will remain until justice is done.”

Our protest is to draw the attention of our leaders to the need to hold our convention and elect leaders. That is all we are asking for.”
