Former Katsina State Governor, Aminu Masari has dismissed the rife reports that aggrieved members of the party are allying to oust the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

According to Masari, the alleged alliances by these individuals are a mere regrouping of people who lost out on appointments or patronage in the APC.

He stressed that there is no alternative to the ruling party.

He made this known during the inauguration of the campaign for the LG election scheduled for February 15.

His comment comes after Former Kaduna governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, former Rivers state governor, Rotimi Amaechi, and ex-Ekiti state governor, Kayode Fayemi attended a conference with Atiku Abubakar.

Speaking in Kafur, Kafur local government area of Katsina state, on Sunday, February 2, he said: “The news making rounds on social media that some politicians are teaming up for a merger is nothing but the regrouping of those who lost political favours in the APC, in terms of appointments or patronage,”

The former governor said the attention of the ruling APC would not be diverted by the attempt to form an alliance.

Masari said the APC is focused on conceiving and implementing programmes that could assuage the pains of Nigerians. Masari said as a founding member of the APC, he would remain committed to the ideals of the party.

“I am in APC today, tomorrow, and always because I am not in the party for any political position or appointment,”
