The crisis rocking the Kwara state chapter of the All Progressive Congress (APC) took another twist on Tuesday after the Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed described the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Yekini Nabena as an impostor.
Mohammed, while reacting to a statement credited to Mr Nabena urging the Lai Mohammed faction of the APC in Kwara state to accept Governor AbdulRazaq as the leader of the party in the state.
Read full statement by Alhaji Lai Mohammed:
“My attention has been drawn to the statement credited to one Yekini Nabena, who was described as the Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), on the ongoing APC Membership
Registration in Kwara State.
The said Nabena must have been speaking for himself, as the APC National Caretaker Committee, as presently constituted, has no
position like that of Deputy National Publicity Secretary.
As part of the resolutions from its last meeting in Abuja on Dec. 8th 2020, the APC NEC approved the immediate dissolution of the party organs at the polling units, wards, local government, states and zonal levels as well as the non-National Working Committee component of the NEC, and the immediate reconstitution and composition of the dissolved EXCOs to serve in their respective offices in a caretaker committee capacity, but excluding the non-NWC members of NEC.
As things stand, therefore, anyone claiming to be the Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the APC is an impostor, hence I will not
dignify such a pretender with a response.”
