Furthermore, the stakeholders criticized the governor’s reported decision to reopen the 2018 Offa robbery case involving former Senate President Bukola Saraki. They described the move as politically motivated, suggesting it could generate public sympathy for Saraki and the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). This, they argued, may negatively impact the APC’s electoral performance in Kwara State and beyond.
The petitioners urged President Tinubu and the national leadership of the APC to intervene swiftly to address the growing tensions. They emphasized the need for unity and transparency within the party to prevent further fragmentation. They also called for a review of governance and leadership structures in Kwara State to ensure the party remains competitive and credible ahead of the 2027 elections.
As the APC prepares for its next electoral cycle, the petition highlights deepening internal divisions that could affect its performance in one of Nigeria’s key political states. The outcome of this intervention may shape the party’s strategy and cohesion in the months ahead.
