The secretary said that the party had identified some individuals who played anti-party activities, describing it as a terminal sin against any political party.

Ngwu explained that the State Executive Committee of the APC believed it was imperative to tackle the matter head-on.

Ngwu said that anti-party activities refer to actions or attitudes that go against the goals and principles of a political party, adding that when anti-party activities occur, it could undermine the ability of the Party to fulfil its role and harm the functioning of the democratic system.

He, however, said that anti-party activities could lead to a loss of support from voters and donors, which can harm the Party’s ability to compete in elections and implement its policies.

Ngwu hinted that anti-party activities might lead to the expulsion of party members or the formation of splinter groups, which can further weaken the Party and make it less effective.

The secretary said that the party was fully aware of the nefarious activities of the previous administration of the Party in the 2015 and 2019 general elections, noting that the Party reviewed various petitions and reports from the Fact-Finding Committee and the disciplinary committee against some individuals.
