The Director-General of the National Productivity Centre, Baffa Dan-Agundi, has strongly warned against intra party crisis in the APC, saying that the wrangling would jeopardize the party chances in 2027 if not addressed.
Baffa made the remark on Tuesday while speaking against the backdrop of the recent crisis that engulfed the party in Kano State over the issue of the party chairmanship.

“We cannot afford to allow misunderstanding, attacks, derogatory comments and all sorts of negative behaviors among members of our great party. This is not acceptable. We must support the Government of President Bola Tinubu,” he said.
The Director General stressed the need for party members to support president Tinubu to enable his government achieve its laudable policies.
“We must support President Tinubu to achieve his government policies, that is why we are going to showcase to him how many people benefited from his several interventions”.
The DG commended Engr. Abba Bichi, Chairman of the Appropriation Committee, Federal House of Representatives, for his generous support to the Tinubu Support Group by inserting into the Budget supports Funds.
The groups, he said, comprise supporters from the North West states, who worked tirelessly to ensure the victory of the All Progressives Congress during the 2019 general elections.

Speaking during a special empowerment program supported by Engr. Abba Bichi with N900 million, Dan-Agundi applauded the efforts of the Tinubu Support Group and announced that seven states in the North West would benefit from the gesture.
A total of 10,000 people are expected to benefit from the program, which includes the distribution of empowerment items such as motorcycles, sewing machines, and food items.
Dan-Agundi emphasized that due process would be followed to ensure that the gesture reaches the grassroots politicians.
He also noted that another empowerment program worth N10 billion would be provided later this year, with the Tinubu Support Group expected to benefit from the gesture.
“To ensure the success of small-scale businesses, clusters would be initiated, enabling youths to become self-reliant and employers of labour.
