The Social Democratic Party has extended invitation to members of the Kwara State All Progressives Congress, as the crisis within ruling party deepens.

The SDP, in a statement by its Chairman in Kwara State, Lekan Alabi, noted that the APC had been embroiled in crisis since coming to power in 2019.

According to him, the crisis in the APC had distracted the APC-led government from delivering on its mandate.

“The SDP, therefore, wishes to sympathise with the good people of Kwara State and the genuine progressives in the All Progressives Congress, who are unwillingly entangled in the mess, and indeed all lovers of true democracy to come and team up with us in an effort to rescue the downtrodden from the clutches of pseudo-progressives masquerading as lovers of the people.”

Meanwhile, a group within the APC, ‘Global Like Minds Movement’, has called on aggrieved party members to make known their demands the state governor.

 The group’s coordinator, Alhaji Omar Aiyelabegan, said, “It’s an open fact that our party, APC, is facing crisis and we don’t want that type of crisis to continue, because it is being perpetuated by political job seekers and people who want to benefit out of the current unpleasant situation. That is why we want to put the record straight.”

The group challenged the two ministers from Kwara State in President Muhammadu Buhari’s cabinet – Alhaji Lai Mohammed and Senator Gbemisola Saraki – to give account of their contributions to the development of the state since their appointment by the President.
