In a statement made available to newsmen, the party maintained that only the John Ochala led state executive is accorded recognition.
The statement signed by its spokesperson, Bolaji Abdullahi frowned at aborted attempts by certain forces to hijack the party structure in Cross Rivers State.
The statement read in part:’’ Our attention has been drawn to recent developments in the All Progressives Congress (APC), Cross Rivers State Chapter. For the avoidance of doubts, please be guided as follows: ‘’That the State executive of our Chapter in Cross Rivers State led by Sir John Ochalla is the duly recognized Executive of the State.
‘’ That we condemn in totality the activities of Friday 2nd – 6th February 2018, in which some party members allegedly broke in, vandalized, occupied the State Secretariat and allegedly claim that there is a change in leadership of the State Executive Committee.
‘’All perpetrators of this illegality and acts of gross indiscipline causing undue disaffection amongst party faithful shall be investigated and prosecuted in line with the constitution of our great party.
‘’ It is imperative to state that our great party has laid down procedures for resolving any internal dispute.
‘’ We appeal to all our teeming members to be calm, law-abiding and loyal to the Sir John Ochalla-led State Executive Committee as the party is poised to resolving all contending issues in Cross Rivers State Chapter.’’
