The All Progressives Congress (APC) has condemned recent events in the United States and President Donald Trump’s refusal to concede defeat.
The APC stated its position on Saturday in a statement by John Akpan Udoedehe, Secretary of its Caretaker and Extra-ordinary Convention Planning Committee.
Nigeria’s ruling party said over time, elections in America had been used as a reference in other democracies.
The scribe noted that strong institutions are fundamental to the sustenance of democracies.
“This U.S. election saga strongly underscores the fact that the integrity of the country’s leader essentially complements the workings of these institutions.
The immediate past Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State, Chief Jide Awe, has said the National Leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and Governor Kayode Fayemi, enjoy a good relationship despite their rumoured interest in the 2023 presidential race.
Awe who advocated for unity in the APC urged the followers of the two chieftains to promote the overall interests of the party and make it stronger ahead of future elections.
The former Ekiti APC boss said now is the time to concentrate on building the party rather than causing division to make it a stronger election-winning platform.
