Ajibola Basiru, has issued a warning to party members regarding the establishment of a caucus within Osun state’s All Progressives Congress (APC) by former Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola.
Ajibola Basiru stressed that such a group is inconsistent with the APC’s constitution.
In his statement: “The APC constitution does not acknowledge a caucus as an official organ or structure of the party. While there is freedom of association under the Nigerian constitution, individuals are entitled to form associations. However, within the context of the APC, we do not acknowledge the kind of arrangement that the former minister is creating. At most, it appears to be a political club of his preference and lacks foundation within the APC’s structure and organization.”
The National Secretary advised that authentic members of the APC to be careful with regards to the actions of those individuals who may not be identifiable as current members of the party.
He warned those genuine party members associating with such people to desist from doing so.
