3 August 2021File: Yobe State Governor and Chairman Caretaker/Extra-Ordinary Ordinary National Convention Planning Committee of the APC, Mai Mala BuniVice President Yemi Osinbajo and governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives’ Congress have begun consultations on how best to resolve the internal crisis in the APC following the Supreme Court judgment on the chairmanship of Mai Mala Buni.
The Minister of Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo , in a statement on Wednesday advised the party to suspend the ward congress. A highly-placed party source who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of retribution, disclosed that at the inaugural meeting, Osinbajo presided over a legal review of the judgment with lawyers who are members of the Federal Executive Council ahead of Saturday’s Ward congresses.
Late on Monday, a reliable source in the Villa told The PUNCH that “The VP is of the firm view that the Supreme Court ruling last week is a clear legal ditch which is best avoided. The Office of the AGF said this in response to a media report that Malami defied Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, insisting that the planned APC congress must hold regardless of the Supreme Court judgment on the Ondo State governorship election.
