The All Progressives Congress (APC),says its membership strength in the country has hit over 40 million.
John James AkpanUdoedehe, APC Caretaker Committee Secretary,who disclosed this when a team of non -career Ambassadors paid a courtesy visit on the leadership of the Party in Abuja,attributed the development to Yobe State governor and Chairman of the APC Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC), Gov Mai Mala Buni, whom he said has ushered in peace in the party after a long drawn post formation crisis.
He said:”We are blessed to have focused and gentle Chairman. When he came on board, we lost ground. Under his leadership we have regained what we lost and gained more. We had a membership strength of 12 million. I want to inform you your Excellencies, under his leadership the APC has moved to about 40 something million today.
“Since the creation of this party, we have never enjoyed peace and tranquility that we are enjoying. He has brought in some kind of calmness. We are blessed to have him. He is accesssable. He read your speech before you came and he granted everything you requested. That is the kind of Chairman we have”.
