The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, says he has been given an assurance that there will be no APC congress in Kwara until all members of the party are duly registered and have revalidated their membership.
The minister said the APC Caretaker Chairman and governor of Yobe, Mai-Mala Buni, gave him the assurance when he led a team of party leaders from Kwara to him.
Mohammed disclosed this on Saturday in Ilorin at the inauguration of a new state secretariat of the party.

While addressing APC members who thronged the new secretariat, the minister gave an assurance that those who were denied registration or revalidation of their membership during the last exercise would be captured before congress is held in the state.
“Let me assure you that there will be no congress in Kwara State until and when we are all registered and that is when such congress will be free and fair.
“About two weeks ago, myself, Prof. Oba Abdulraheem and Makama, went to the national chairman of the party and he assured us that Kwara State is a special state.
“He assured us that there will be no congress until we are all registered.
“I am therefore appealing to all of you to come out and register when they come,’’ he said.
The minister decried what he called the non-inclusive administration being run by Governor AbdulRazaq AbduRahman, contending that it was tantamount to “biting the fingers that fed him.”
