Epe Insights reports that the position was restated during a familiarisation meeting involving the Eredo LCDA APC leadership, party stakeholders, and members of the legislative and executive arms of the council.
The meeting provided an opportunity for party leaders and stakeholders to interact, strengthen relationships and discuss issues affecting the party at the grassroots.
It also created a platform for dialogue and reconciliation as the APC prepares for future political engagements.
Speaking at the meeting, APC Lagos East Vice Chairman, Mrs. Olayinka Olusanya, made the position of the party leadership clear.
She stated that the party had taken its decision and recognised Hon. Ismail Waliyullah as the APC LGA Chairman in Eredo LCDA.
Olusanya urged party leaders, stakeholders and members to respect the decision of the party and work together towards strengthening the APC.
She acknowledged that disagreements could arise within political organisations, describing such differences as part of the political process.
However, she stressed that the ability to resolve misunderstandings and maintain unity remains essential to the strength of any political organisation.
According to her, the APC in Eredo LCDA must move beyond differences and concentrate on building a stronger party structure.
She appealed to members to embrace one another and put the collective interest of the party above individual disagreements.
The Vice Chairman also encouraged party stakeholders to maintain open communication and work together to achieve common objectives.

Their participation provided an opportunity for the different arms of the local political structure to interact with the party leadership.
The gathering also reinforced the importance of cooperation between party structures and elected council officials.
For the APC, unity at the grassroots remains important to building an effective political organisation.
A united party structure can improve coordination and strengthen its ability to engage members and residents across the communities.
The meeting therefore focused not only on leadership recognition but also on reconciliation and the need for greater cooperation.
In his response, Hon. Ismail Waliyullah expressed appreciation to the party leadership and assured members of his commitment to inclusiveness.
He promised to carry everyone along in the administration of the party at the Eredo LCDA level.

Olusanya urged members to respect the party’s decision and avoid actions that could further deepen divisions.
She emphasised the need for all stakeholders to focus on the larger objectives of the APC.
The call for unity comes as the party continues to strengthen its structures ahead of future political activities.

Olusanya further encouraged stakeholders to maintain discipline and respect for the party’s internal processes.
The appeal was aimed at promoting stability within the local party structure.
