Kwara APC seeks open congresses, free contest

The Chairman of the All Progressives Congress in Kwara State, Prince Sunday Fagbemi, advocates for transparent party congresses that allow all members to participate freely.

Prince Sunday Fagbemi, the Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kwara State, emphasized the need for open and transparent congresses during a recent meeting with party executives and local government officials. He called for an environment where every party member interested in running for office can do so without any obstacles, highlighting the importance of inclusivity within the party. The meeting served as a platform to review the outgoing executives' tenure and strategize for upcoming congresses at the ward, local government, and state levels.

Fagbemi praised the collaborative efforts among party leaders, noting the necessity of maintaining unity despite occasional disagreements. He acknowledged that differing opinions are a natural aspect of politics and asserted that such differences should not hinder the cohesion of the APC. By fostering a spirit of cooperation, the party can strengthen its position and effectively engage with the electorate ahead of the forthcoming elections.

As the tenure of the current executives concludes, Fagbemi's call for inclusive congresses reflects a broader strategy to rejuvenate the party's ranks and ensure that various voices within the APC are represented. This push for openness is critical as it may enhance grassroots support and improve overall participation, potentially setting the stage for a more democratic internal process and strengthening the party's electoral prospects in Kwara State.
