ACN convention approves merger into APC

The over 4,000 delegates at the convention of the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, officially approved the merger of the party with three others to form the All Progressives Congress, APC.

The delegates also approved the retention of the broom symbol as the APC symbol at Thursday’s national convention at the Onikan Stadium in Lagos.

The congress also approved the expulsion of an ACN member from Kaduna State.

“Some alliances in the past only facilitated corruption; they were a rape to democracy. This is the day when we shall witness the first installment of the consummation of the merger started last February,” said Lawal Shuaibu, Chairman of the Convention Committee.
