The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to appoint in his cabinet, boards and parastatals only known and committed party members in the state.
Rising from a meeting at the weekend, the stakeholders of the party categorically stated that only card-carrying party members who have been contributing to the growth of the party in the state should be given appointments by the president.
The party also resolved to write down the names of 50 members from all the 21 local government areas of the state for submission, for consideration for appointments.
State chairman of the party, Chief Basil Ejidike, while addressing party stakeholders said the Tinubu presidency should give members of the party in the state the enablement to reap from their hard work over the years.
This is as he inaugurated the finance, eminent and disciplinary committees of the party in the state. He said there was a need for the disciplinary committee to sanitise the party just as the finance committee was necessary to fashion out ways to source funds to run the party.

The chairman said his executive has visited all governorship aspirants of the party in the last governorship election, on ways to reconcile everyone, and has received positive feedback.
‘Anyone who is still bearing grudges, is not telling himself the truth, because we have thrashed out all the problems, and all we need is to forge ahead. Anambra APC is now more positioned because President Tinubu is a politician and a core party man. We are hopeful that the labours of our hands in the party will be rewarded under President Tinubu,’ Ejidike said.
There have been cold war among some party bigwigs in the state, fueling rumour that some members of the state leadership may influence appointments from the state in the President Bola Tinubu-led federal government, at the detriment of others.
