The leadership of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Benue South Senatorial District, otherwise known as Zone C, has called on Daniel Onjeh, the party’s senatorial candidate in the 2023 election and Benjamin Omakolo to stop creating confusion in the party.
Recall that Onjeh had written a petition against the Benue APC chairman, Austin Agada, citing alleged anti-party activities during the 2023 election. Also, Omakolo is currently claiming to be the chairman of the party, despite a court order recognizing Agada as the authentic chairman. Reacting to the development on Wednesday at a press conference, the zonal youth leaders passed a vote of confidence on the Agada-led state executive committee of the party.
He said, “In the vibrant political landscape of Benue South Zone C, the All Progressives Congress, APC, Youth leadership proudly stands behind the Benue State APC Chairman, Comrade Austin Agada, recognizing his exceptional leadership qualities that have positively impacted the lives of the youth and communities under his influence. “Comrade Agada's commitment to youth inclusion and empowerment is unparalleled, as evident in his remarkable efforts to engage and uplift the younger generation.
