The foundation members of All Progressives Congress (APC) Kwara State chapter yesterday vowed to shut down the party’s secretariat until "justice is done".

Spokesman of the group, Comrade Isiaka Warah, who was also an aspirant during the primaries for Ilorin West/Asa federal Constituency said, “we were the first group to raise the idea of consensus candidates in the party by advising the stakeholders then and the reason was to have rancour-free exercise, but unfortunately it was turned down.

“What we are seeing in the party today is a modified consensus mode of primary, since results of the last primaries exercise have been discarded by the National Working Committee (NWC)

"In the light of the foregoing, we demand the following positions as foundation APC members in the state: governorship, 2 senatorial slots, 3 House of Reps slots, 12 House of Assembly slots and agreeable terms on the formation of the next government".

"Those are what we consider time tested solutions to problems bedevilling the party at this material time. Anything short of this will not only be counter- productive but inimical to our common interest ahead of 2019 elections."
