He, however, urged members of the party to eschew all forms of violence in order to sustain peace adding that there was no limit to being a member of APC.

He noted that while there was the limit for being chairman, governor and tenure of the president, there was no limit for being a member of the party.

 

According to him, once the members are united and comfortable, we will sustain the path of peace.

“That is why I stayed away from the rally.”
