Kwara APC holds ward congresses.

Date: 2014-04-06

The ward congresses of the All Progressive Congress (APC) held across the country yesterday went peacefully with most of the leaders emerging through consensus arrangement in the. In Kwara, one of the leaders of the party, Alhaji Abubakar Baraje who led the factional leadership of the PDP that later merged with the APC told newsmen shortly after the completion of the congress at his Baboko Ward that the 'aspiration' of PDP to win the state would end as mere aspiration given the fact that those leading the party now are majorly strangers to the dynamics of the political equation of the north central state. The congress was peaceful in all the centres monitored by our reporter.

Former governor, Senator Bukola Saraki joined his ward members in Ajikobi ward 1 where the exercise took place and by 10.30 am the new executive members for the ward had been elected. A similar scenario played out in Oro ward 1 and Igbaja Ward. All the ward executives were picked by consensus and presented to the congress for ratification. Saraki described the outcome of the exercise as the product of the consensus arrangement and commended the conduct of the members asking them to keep the tempo in the state.
