The All Progressive Congress (APC) has beckoned to aggrieved bigwigs who left the party to return to its fold in the spirit of reconciliation.

The ruling party extended an invitation to heavyweights such as former vice president and presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2015 election, Atiku Abubakar, Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State, former senate president Bukola Saraki and others who left the party ahead of the 2019 election till date.

The party made the call after the return of Senator Barnabas Gemade of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) to the party at the weekend.

Ealier, immediate past Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara decamped to the party after moving to PDP to contest 2019 election.

APC said the return of the duo is testament to the effort of the Governor Mai Mala Buni-led caretaker committee to reconcile aggrieved members of the party and invited others who left to return to the party.

A statement by its Deputy National Publicity Secretary Yekini Nabena, said, “We assure all true progressives who left the party over whatever grievance to return and join ongoing efforts to reposition the APC and further achieve our pro-people plans for the country.”
