**Benue APC Congresses: A Beacon of Unity and Discipline**
The just-concluded local government congresses in Benue State have been hailed as a huge success by the All Progressives Congress (APC). The party's publicity secretary, Daniel Ihomun, has expressed satisfaction with the peaceful and transparent conduct of the congresses, which took place on Saturday, February 21, 2026.
The massive turnout of party members is a testament to their confidence in the leadership of APC in Benue State. The congresses, which were orderly and well-organised, reflect the high level of discipline and unity within the party. This is a significant achievement, considering the challenges that often accompany party congresses in Nigeria.
The affirmation of existing local government party executives to continue in office for another four-year tenure is a clear endorsement of their stewardship and leadership skills. The party has encouraged them to remain inclusive, transparent, and committed to strengthening the party's structures at the grassroots. This is crucial to the party's success in the 2027 general elections.
The successful completion of both ward and local government congresses has further solidified the unity and focus of the Benue State Chapter of APC. The party is well-positioned to consolidate its structures and intensify mobilisation efforts to secure victory for President Bola Tinubu in 2027. The APC remains committed to internal democracy, unity, and the advancement of its objectives in Benue State and beyond.
The peaceful and successful conduct of the congresses is a welcome development, especially in a state like Benue, where party politics can sometimes be tense. This achievement is a testament to the party's commitment to democracy and good governance. As the party looks ahead to the 2027 elections, it is clear that the APC is on the right path to success in Benue State.
