In a joint statement issued on Sunday, the two personalities clarified that their actions have become necessary in view of the giant strides of achievements recorded by the Governor within a short space of time calling on other well meaning citizens of the state to tow the same line.
The erstwhile aspirants who all hail from Yaav ward, in Turan, Kwande local government area of the state explained that they are loyal and committed members of the party
“We are fully committed to the party and its future success, but we want to make it clear that we wouldn’t endorse certain decisions and line of actions that other members, who are bent on destabilizing the party, are towing.
Hon. Nomkpo and Dr. Philip have expressed their intention to avoid any legal entanglements and focus on pragmatic solutions that would benefit both the party and its members.
The two aspirants also reiterated their commitment to working with the party leadership and other stakeholders to ensure peace and progress within the APC in Benue State.
They equally urged other party faithfuls to prioritize unity and collaboration in order to get the desired dividends of democracy.
