North-Central Vanguard for Social Justice , NCVSJ has condemned the subterranean moves in some quarters to frustrate the North Central from reclaiming the seat of the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In a statement signed by its chairman, Silas Ibrahim, NCVSJ said from the onset it was a grave injustice to have allowed the incumbent national chairman, Dr. Abdulkahi Ganduje, to step in after the existence of Senator Abdullahi Adamu, who is from the North Central.
“It is an act of injustice and undemocratic to have taken the chairmanship away from the zone to the northwest, where the incumbent hails from. With this, the zoning arrangement in place in the party has been altered and North-Central schemed out of the equation.
“More so, the North-Central is a strong political base of the APC; we recall that the people voted overwhelmingly for the party during the 2023 presidential and governorship elections. At the moment the party is in full control of five out of the six states in the geopolitical zone; it deserves fair treatment from the leadership of the party.”
The group chided some political elements in the zone who recently endorsed Dr. Ganduje to continue as the National Chairman of the APC, adding that they were simply pursuing personal interests not in accordance with the collective position of other party members in the zone.
“It is just too early to rock the boat after the 2023 general election; the members of the party in the North-Central want the chairmanship seat back to the geopolitical zone for the sake of equity, justice, and fairness.
” Moreso the North West already has the Deputy Senate President and Speaker of the House of Representatives positions. Politics is about equity, fairness and justice”
The group therefore called on the leader of the party, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and other stakeholders to intervene and ensure that justice prevails in the matter, adding that this will give North-Central a sense of belonging and a rightful place in the party.
