The All Progressives Congress says there is no Crisis within its ranks and that it stands as one united, strong and indomitable Unit.
This was contained in a Statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary of the Party, Felix Morka.
The party said the recent resignation of the National Chairman and Secretary of the Party, Senators Abdullahi Adamu and Iyiola Omisore, is a show of the Institutional Maturity within its ranks and not a Crisis.
It warned Naysayers who have also tried to latch onto the issue of their successors to stay off adding that APC will continue to remain strong and move forward with Unity and a strong sense of purpose.

NO CRISIS IN APC – STANDS UNITED IN QUEST FOR A MORE PROGRESSIVE PARTY
Recent events in the All Progressives Congress (APC), notably, the resignation of the National Chairman and National Secretary has led some to suggest that the Party is in some kind of crisis. Incipient conversations and rumors regarding their possible successors have equally fueled false narratives of deepening crisis in the Party.
Quite to the contrary, there is no crisis in the Party. APC stands as one strong, dynamic, resilient and progressive Party. The resignations under reference only show the high level of institutional maturity and quality of its leadership that place the best interest of the Party first and above personal egos and ambitions. The rapid and seamless succession, in acting capacities, to both offices exemplifies the cogency of its constitutional processes.
Trending reports in sections of the media suggesting disharmony among members of National Working Committee (NWC) or between the NWC and other critical sections of the Party’s leadership around possible successor to the office of National Chairman are purely speculative. All sections of the Party’s college of leadership stand united in quest for a more progressive Party.
While individual Party leaders and members retain their right to express their personal thoughts and opinions, they do not represent the official position of the NWC or the Party. Official position of the NWC on the subject of succession to any vacant offices of the NWC or any other subject will be communicated via the official channels of the NWC.
Change in the life of any individual or institution is constant and inevitable. As Africa’s largest political Party, our demonstrated capacity to adapt to change and emergent realities always stands us out, and sets us beyond the wishes of doomsayers. We remain committed to the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Administration towards uplifting the quality of life of all Nigerians.
Signed:
Barr. Felix Morka
National Publicity Secretary
All Progressives Congress (APC)
