The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has intervened in the ongoing political crisis rocking Ondo State government.
PlatinumPost reports that the political crisis took another twist a few days following the decision of the State House of Assembly to commence impeachment’s moves against the deputy governor, Mr Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
But APC which expressed over the ugly development in the state, said it has set up committee to resolve the issues.
This is contained in a statement signed by Mr Edwin Olofu – Chief Press Secretary to the National Chairman of the party, Abdullahi Ganduje.
The statement obtained by PlatinumPost in Abuja on Thursday read in full : “The National Secretariat of the Party is really concerned about the unfortunate political situation in Ondo State, which if not quickly averted, may lead to further disaffection among party faithfuls.
Therefore, in order to avert the misunderstanding, and after critical observation of the situation, the National Secretariat has decided to wade in, with a view to foster better understanding that may likely lead to amicable resolution.
In light of the above, the National Chairman of the Party, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, CON, has set up a 9-Man Committee under the able leadership of the erstwhile Governor of Katsina State, His Excellency, Rt Hon Aminu Bello Masari, CFR, to not only intervene, but also see to the peaceful reconciliation of all parties involved.
The Party therefore assures all and sundry, that through this Committee, it will interact and dialogue with all the stakeholders in the state, based on mutual respect, with a view to finding a lasting solution.
The National Secretariat urges all parties to remain calm, and extend all the necessary cooperation and support to the Masari-led Committee. ”
