January 31, 2021 · Politics

Discontent within the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Katsina has resulted in a splinter faction announcing its formation. Leaders of the breakaway group cited alleged imposition of candidates and neglect of grassroots voices. They pledged to pursue inclusive leadership and stronger internal democracy. Party elders warned that division could weaken APC’s electoral strength in future polls. Analysts say reconciliation efforts will be vital if the ruling party hopes to maintain dominance in Katsina’s highly competitive political landscape.
