The Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, has said the All Progressives Congress (APC) may have some corrupt members amongst its group.
In a tweet via his Twitter handle on Monday, Keyamo stated that the corrupt politicians in the ruling party will not be spared if they are caught.
He opined that the APC was the best vehicle to wrestle power from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2015 and to keep the party out of power till today.
The Chief Spokesman for the APC Presidential Campaign Council added that the ruling party still represents the hope of the nation.
He wrote: “I hardly answer ignorant people on Social Media, but let me put this extended video here for the first time. This was in 2017 and I stand by my words.
In summary, what I said was that the APC may not be our best and may have some corrupt elements within it (they’ll not be spared if they’re caught), but that does not mean we should go back to the era of impunity of the PDP from which we are coming.
“I said and I repeat that the APC was the best vehicle we had to wrestle power from the PDP (like the June 12 struggle was used to wrestle power from the Military) and to keep them out of power till today. The APC still represents our hope. They have over-edited the video to deceive everyone for so long.”
