The Bauchi State chairman of the Reformed All Progressive Congress, R-APC, Sani Malam Shehu, has vowed that the faction would do everything within the ambit of the law to dislodge President Muhammadu Buhari and governor Mohammed Abubakar of Bauchi State in 2019.

He said the action would be taken if all avenues were exhausted on the push for APC to entertain rAPC demands, following failed congresses in most states.

Shehu said in Bauchi that the APC failed congresses were the root cause of the party’s problems ahead of the 2019 elections.

“Let me tell you that APC is the worst party in terms of injustice to its teaming supporters. Governors were allowed to hijack the party’s Congresses and smuggle in their errand boys to save their second term bid.

“We are just waiting for 2019 election and Nigerians should watch the repeat of 2015 elections where same PDP supporters voted the party out; same will happen to APC if nothing is done to right the wrongs in respect of APC failed congresses,” Shehu said.

He added that the Bauchi State chapter of the rAPC would soon be inaugurated, urging the supporters “to always remain calm and law abiding.”
