He quoted the State APC Chairman, Alhaji Isa Sadiq-Achida, while speaking on behalf of the party as assuring the new member and his supporters of equal treatment with all other members.

This is a great development for our party and I am certain that with the caliber of personalities the APC has continued to received ahead of the General Elections, we are truly blessed.
