Concerns are mounting within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) over the administrative approach of its National Chairman, Nentawe Yilwatda, following the conclusion of the party’s recent national convention.

In a statement issued by the Forum of APC Concerned Stakeholders and signed by its National Coordinator, Abdulsalam Qudus, party members expressed unease about what they described as unresolved administrative lapses at the party’s national secretariat.

While acknowledging that Prof. Yilwatda’s emergence initially generated optimism—largely due to his academic credentials—some stakeholders noted that concerns about his limited political experience had been raised earlier on, especially when compared with predecessors who had served as governors.

The statement, however, commended the chairman for improving staff welfare, particularly the prompt payment of salaries and allowances. Despite this, it alleged that gaps in administrative oversight have allowed certain close aides to exert undue influence within the chairman’s office.

Of particular concern, the stakeholders pointed to the role of a female aide, identified as Dr. Peace, who they claim has become a dominant intermediary between the chairman and party leaders.

According to the statement, this arrangement has restricted direct access to the chairman and contributed to growing frustration among key stakeholders.

The group further alleged that the situation has weakened internal communication and transparency, with claims—yet to be independently verified—that sensitive processes such as committee assignments and delegate list preparations may have been improperly influenced.

Calling for urgent corrective measures, the stakeholders urged the APC national chairman to restructure his administrative framework, curb undue influence, and engage experienced personnel to manage party affairs more effectively.

They also stressed the need for greater transparency, inclusiveness, and professionalism to preserve unity and strengthen confidence within the party.
