Members of the caretaker committee of the All Progressive Congress (APC) for Rivers State Chapter of the party has been inaugurated.
They were inaugurated by the National Working Committee of the party on Friday.
The inauguration took place at the national headquarters of the APC in Abuja.
APC national chairman, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje sworn-in members of the committee with chief Tony Okocha serving as chairman, Eric Nwibani as the Secretary of the seven-man caretaker committee.
Other members included Chibuike Ikenga, Stephen Abolo, Silvester Vidin, Senibo Karibi Dan-Jumbo, and Miss Darling Amadi.
Ganduje urged them to be prepared for the arduous task of reconciling factions and members who had left the party.
He also tasked them to, within the six-month of their term, to create an enabling environment for the conduct of congresses that will usher in leadership at all levels.
“So, this new NWC has taken a look at the issues pertaining to the party both at national and individual state levels and decided to reform the party.
“There is no doubt we have members who have been with APC since inception. Some left the party. Some prominent chieftains who left the party even contested against us in another political party.
” They now wish to come back. Those who left to form factions are also ready to come back. You can see that there is no better time to rejig the party than now especially under a new state party leadership and we have confidence in you.
“Part of the reform system we have introduced includes electronic registration of our members and we request that you pay attention to the electronic registration of our members and do some work to spearhead the exercise.
“We expect you to constitute various committees to get more members into the party. That is the work you should do and we expect you to create an enabling environment so congresses could be conducted for the emergence of leadership at local government, state, and even senatorial levels.
