Former governor of Osun, Rauf Aregbesola and Governor of Kebbi State, Atiku Bagudu have commended aggrieved members of All Progressives Congress (APC) in the South South who lost out in the last primaries for not defecting to the opposition parties.

The former governor who led other members of the South-South National Peace and Reconciliation Committee of the APC, explained that the committee interacted and heard from leaders and concerned members of the party with a view to brokering peace as a result of grievances that trailed the last governorship, National Assembly and state Assembly primaries of the party in the zone.

The committee chairman said reconciliation was important in order to address the issue of aggrieved party members as preparatory measures for a swift victory in 2019.

Addressing aggrieved aspirants in South South, Aregbesola said: ‘’I must commend you for the maturity you have exhibited by putting behind you the hurt to work for the victory of our party. It is obvious that the APC is winning 2019 elections.

‘’Therefore, I urge you to bury the agonies, pains and miseries of the past and remain true to the party because the victory of the party will drive away all that’’.

The committee held a consultative and reconciliatory meeting with concerned leaders and members of the party between 10-13 of December 2018.

It went to Edo, Delta, Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom and Cross River states.

With the intervention, the committee has reposition the party in the zone, having gone through so many devastating experience.

The committee Chairman has therefore charged the aggrieved members of the party, irrespective of where their loyalty lies, to have forgiving spirit and be tolerant of one another to win the 2019 elections, saying. “If we must win the elections, we must be tolerant, and have a forgiving spirit among us.
