The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed has appealed to his supporters in Kwara State who recently defected to the Social Democratic Party (SDP) to have a rethink and return to the All Progressive Congress (APC), reports ITREALMS.Mohammed in a personally signed press statement made available to ITREALMS said his attention was drawn to media reports on the defection of some of his supporters.
"I wish to state categorically that despite the fact that the supporters are genuinely aggrieved at the way and manner they have been treated by the Kwara State Governor and his supporters, against the backdrop of their immeasurable contributions to the massive victory of our party in the state in 2019, leaving the party is not the solution.
"We have taken the grievances of our supporters to the highest level of our party, and we have cause to believe that everything will be done to address the grievances and unite the party ahead of the 2023 elections.
"I am therefore appealing to those who may have left to reconsider their stand and return to their natural habitat.
On my part, as a founding member of the APC, as someone who has toiled endlessly to build the party and as one who has worked with stakeholders to deliver Kwara State to the APC, leaving the party is
not an option. I am a bonafide member of the APC and I have no intention of leaving the party.
"All through my political career, I have always remained loyal to any party in which I have found myself. That is not about to change now," he said.
Further, Lai Mohammed used this opportunity to once again call on the leadership of our party to urgently and decisively address the issues that have forced some members of our party in Kwara to contemplate leaving the party.
