President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday inaugurated a Committee on Strategy, Conflict Resolution and Mobilisation to resolve conflicts within the All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the 2027 general election.

The committee, which comprises governors of the party, members of the Federal Executive Council, and other notable stakeholders, has the Governor of Yobe State, Mai Bala Buni, as Chairman, and Muiz Banire, former Legal Adviser of the APC, as Member/Secretary.

Other members include Senator Adamu Aliero; Chairman of the Nigeria Governors Forum and Governor of Kwara State, Abdulrahman AbduRazak; Chairman of Progressive Governors Forum and Governor of Imo State, Hope Uzodimma; and Governors Hyacinth Alia (Benue), Umar Namadi (Jigawa), Bassey Otu (Cross River), Biodun Oyebanji (Ekiti), and Sheriff Oborevwori (Delta).

Governors Uba Sani (Kaduna), Siminalayi Fubara (Rivers), Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Adegboyega Oyetola, Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, and former Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, are also members.

At the inauguration in Lagos, Governor Buni expressed gratitude for being chosen as the chairman and for the party’s confidence in the members.

He said the committee would execute the assignment with utmost responsibility and dedication.

He urged members “not to allow personal interest and sentiments to override the general interest and purpose for which this committee is constituted.”

Tinubu had, on December 19, at the 15th National Executive Committee meeting of the APC, harped on the need for cohesion within the ruling party.

Tinubu reminded party leaders that the APC was built on the ideals of progressive politics, broad-based participation, and respect for diversity of opinion.
