Fresh concerns have emerged within the Enugu State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as delegates to the party’s national convention allege nonpayment of a promised allowance.
The delegates, who participated in the convention, say the stipend—reportedly agreed upon before the event—was meant to cover logistics and support their involvement. However, many claim they are yet to receive the payment, sparking dissatisfaction among party members at the grassroots level.
The situation has raised fears of growing disunity within the state chapter, with some stakeholders warning that unresolved grievances could strain internal relationships and affect party cohesion. Enugu remains a key state in the APC’s broader strategy to strengthen its foothold in the South-East, making the issue particularly sensitive.
Despite the tension, party insiders indicate that discussions are ongoing to address the matter and prevent further escalation. Calls for calm have also been made, with emphasis on preserving unity and focusing on the party’s long-term goals.
Observers note that the development underscores the importance of transparency and effective communication within political organizations. Many are now awaiting an official response from the national leadership of the All Progressives Congress as efforts continue to resolve the concerns raised by the delegates.
