Buba however fumed on some skeletal issues ravaging the party at the ward insisting that a divided house will not stand but collapse.

Speaking on the last ward congress, Buba said in as much as some excos were dropped, that does not mean the party will neglect them just apologize for any inconvenience such decisions must have caused.

“Am begging each one of you to give peace a chance. Is not that when you are an exco that is when you will benefit. No. No. No. You can be a member and still benefit. Am using this medium to apologize for any inconvenience, forgive one another for our party to move forward.

The Commissioner admonished the APC ward leaders to carry members of the party along in each of it policies, adding, there is need for the executive to work with members in harmony towards achieving the goals of the party.
