A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC,  in Ekiti State, Senator Gbenga Aluko, has urged members to forge stronger unity within the party to sustain its foremost position in the politics of the state.

He debunked rumours of attack on the APC National Leader, Bola Tinubu, saying it was shocking that an honest remark on the resolution of a disagreement within the party could be misinterpreted and manipulated in the social media to set him against the respected party national leader.

The Senator was at the weekend on a visit to the party secretariat in Ado-Ekiti, where he said he was on a “familiarization and assimilation visit” to seek the support of  leadership to be accepted into the APC fold.

He appealed to the aggrieved members to sheathe their swords, explaining that taking internal crisis for resolution outside the state diminished the credibility and stature of the party leadership in the fountain of knowledge.
