The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State has expressed strong confidence in its internal unity as it prepares for its upcoming APC National Convention, with party leaders projecting a peaceful and rancour-free exercise.
Speaking ahead of the convention in Abuja, Mr. Charles Aniagwu, Delta State Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads) and Public Information, stated that the processes leading to the national gathering—from ward to state levels—had been orderly and democratic.
He likened the progression to the careful stages of baking a cake.
He noted that about 8,453 delegates are expected to elect party leaders, largely through a consensus arrangement, adding that the party has effective mechanisms for resolving disagreements.
Aniagwu emphasised that the peaceful conduct of previous congresses across political zones demonstrated the party’s ability to manage internal affairs, assuring members and the public that the convention would reflect transparency, orderliness, and unity.

Similarly, the recently concluded South-South APC Zonal Congress in Asaba has been described as a major milestone in strengthening the party’s cohesion in the region.
Chief Press Secretary to Delta State Governor, Sir Festus Ahon, hailed the congress as a historic gathering marked by unity, consolidation, and renewed political strength.
He noted that the alignment of South-South states under the APC signals a new era of cooperation and enhances the region’s political relevance at the national level.
Ahon commended party leaders and stakeholders for fostering unity and urged newly elected zonal executives to sustain the momentum by promoting peace, collaboration, and inclusiveness.
He also highlighted the strong turnout of political heavyweights, describing it as a reflection of growing cohesion within the party.
