APC Chieftain Warns Imposed Consensus Could Tear Party Apart
A Delta State APC chieftain warns that forcing consensus candidates without the full consent of aspirants is undemocratic and could tear the party apart nationwide. He says genuine consensus must be based on collective agreement, not coercion or exclusion. He criticizes governors and a small party elite for demanding clearance before aspirants can purchase nomination forms. This gatekeeping, he argues, shuts out young and emerging politicians and erodes internal democracy. He appeals to the APC leadership to guarantee a level playing field for all aspirants. He cautions that sidelined members may withdraw or defect, weakening the party’s unity ahead of future elections.
