The North Central All Progressives Congress, APC Forum, has berated a group led by the former Senate President, Ameh Ebute, for supporting the embattled National Chairman of the Party, Abdullahi Ganduje, ahead of the Party's National Executive Council, NEC.

Ebute's group, under the auspice of the North Central APC Elders Forum, had on Monday commended the Governor of Nasarawa State, Abdullahi Sule, for backing Ganduje and also drumming support for Ganduje.

The NEC of the Party is slated for September 12 and some stakeholders in the North Central region want the position of the National Chairman of the Party to return to the North Central zone.

The North Central APC Forum in a statement in Jos, yesterday by the Forum's Chairman, Saleh Zazzaga, said "The desperation of the dark forces of the North Central region is already showing through their greed and insensitivity in betraying the region in terms of the position of the National Chairmanship position of the Party."

"The North Central region will not be deterred by the action of the few betrayers, and will not compromise anything or stop at nothing to clinch back the National Chairmanship position of the APC which has been arranged by the Party."
