The 24 All Progressives Congress candidates in the 2023 Abia State House of Assembly election have called on President Bola Tinubu to wade into the crisis in the party and put an end to its factionalisation in the state.
Out of the 24 candidates of the party in the election, only one of them won his election, due to what the candidates termed infighting in the party.
The only elected APC lawmaker in the state House of Assembly, Mr Anderson Akaliro, led the other candidates on a reconciliation mission to Abuja on Monday.
In a communique tagged, “Abia APC crisis peace initiative,” issued on Monday, Akaliro called on the national leadership of the party to, as a matter of urgency, convene a meeting and invite all leaders and stakeholders of the party to seek an end to the impasse.
The meeting, he said, should include the South-East zonal caucus, Abuja-based party gladiators, key stakeholders, the 2023 APC candidates to the Abia Assembly and House of Representatives and Senate, “with all sitting at a roundtable to get the commitment of the leaders and interest groups to a peace accord.”
The communiqué read in part, “We are calling on President Tinubu, the APC national leadership and the National Assembly members from Abia State and all individual factions to come together so that the factions within the ranks and files of the party would be dissolved into one indivisible unit.
