Lagos APC denies recall of LG appointees list
The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress has refuted claims of recalling the list of local government appointees, labeling the reports as false and misleading.
The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has publicly denied reports suggesting that the party chairman, Mr. Cornelius Ojelabi, recalled the list of secretaries to local governments and supervisors in response to directives from the "Villa." The party's spokesperson, Mr. Seye Oladejo, emphasized that these reports are untrue and aimed at creating unnecessary tension both within the party and among the public. According to Oladejo, the misinformation being circulated contradicts the party's ongoing efforts to maintain unity and stability among its members.
Reports circulating on social media indicated that the APC chairman had made a sudden decision to retract the list of supervisors and secretaries sent to local governments and council developmental areas. These claims have been propagated by certain followers and supporters of the Lagos APC, who interpreted the rumors as indicative of internal discord within the party. The assertion that the chairman had acted swiftly to recall the lists has generated significant buzz, prompting the party to clarify its stance.
The clarifications made by the APC highlight the importance of accurate communication within political parties, especially in a complex political landscape like that of Lagos State. This incident underscores the ongoing dynamics within the APC in Lagos, reflecting the challenges of managing party perceptions and maintaining a cohesive message among its ranks amid speculation and rumors.
