The All Progressives Congress (APC) says that through the suspension of Okorocha, Amosun, Akeredolu, others the party has shown the capacity and willingness to implement its own rules and enforce discipline when there is an infraction.

The party also announced it had lifted the suspension on Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, as well as Senator Ibikunle Amosun and Senator Rochas Okorocha, Osita Okechukwu and Pastor Uguru Usani.

According to the APC, “We have also shown that no individual is above discipline and that the party would always apply equity and justice in the day to day running of the party,” he said.

National Working Committee (NWC) of the party took the decision to suspend Okorocha, Amosun, Akeredolu, others was in line with the party’s deliberate policy of fairness and actions targeted at ensuring harmony within the party across the country.

Issa-Onilu advised the concerned party members to seize the opportunity to fully reconcile themselves with their ward, local government, and state party structures.

He also asked them to key into the party’s activities and continue to make their contributions to the growth and stability of the APC.

“We urge them to also take steps to reconcile with groups and individuals that are important to ensuring a lasting solution to any conflict that may exist in their respective states,” the APC spokesman said.
