The governor of Yobe State and national chairman of the APC Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee, CECPC, Mai Mala Buni, has approved a template to accommodate aggrieved members of the party in Kano.
In a 4-page letter forwarded to the two factions led the state governor Abdullahi Ganduje and the senator representing Kano Central, Ibrahim Shekarau, the party appointed the governor of Zamfara State, Bello Matawalle, former speaker of the House of Reps Yakubu Dogara and Senator Abba Ali to supervise the harmonisation of the party structures and consensus.
According to the harmonisation template, “a bottom-top caucus” will be constituted at each of the 44 local government areas of the state.
“From the totality of the above conclusions, each side, taking into cognizance it’s strength, was tasked to articulate its position on how harmonization of party executives at all levels can be done in order to bring the two sides together as one family thereby achieving genuine and sustainable reconciliation.
“The two sides were reminded of the fact that genuine reconciliation can only be attained by compromise. Meaning that none of the two sides can have 100% of its demands and that you cannot lack what you give, you only lack what you keep.
“Having taken all issues into consideration and in the overall interest of our Kano State Stakeholders and entire membership of our great party, the party resolves to direct as follows:
“To widely consult with the identified critical stakeholders of the party with a view to coming up with an all-inclusive party structure based on CONSENSUS.
