A South South founding member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Prince (Engr) Preye Aganaba MNSE has advised the national leadership of the party to jettison any plan to postpone APC congresses scheduled for June 2021.
Aganaba, who spoke on Tuesday, at his ward three, unit three in Kolokuma-Opokuma, Bayelsa State, shortly after participating in the ongoing revalidation of APC membership, said it was time the party instituted democratic governance structures across the country.
The former APC governorship aspirant in Bayelsa said party members were expecting the national APC to roll out a timetable for the congresses adding that any postponement would dampen the zeal of party loyalists.
“We are all eagerly expecting the congresses of the APC scheduled for June 2021. I am appealing to the national caretaker committee leadership not to postpone the congresses.
“The party has been led by interim leadership for a long time and we need democratic structures to restore people’s confidence in our party” he said.
He said with the performance of President Muhammadu Buhari especially his infrastructural drive across the country, no party would rival the APC in 2023.
He also used the occasion to thank the President and the Minister of Niger Delta, Godswill Akpabio on plans to commission and handover the completed community Health Centre in Odi to the state government.
Acknowledging the security challenges in the country, Aganaba said President Buhari was tackling the development and would soon restore peace in Nigeria.
Aganaba appealed to party members to come out in their numbers and partake in the ongoing party revalidation.
