The All Progressives Congress on Sunday said it would investigate cases of irregularities recorded during Fridays ward congress across the 171 wards in Ebonyi.

This is contained in a release bySecretary to APC National Congress Committee in Ebonyi, Mr Sunny Onyeukwu.

Candidates, who may feel short-changed in the process, are urged to articulate their grievances and forward same to the Appeal Committee for adjudication and redress.

We are confident that those with genuine complaints will obtain justice as the party affirms its commitment to transparency and fair play during its congresses, the statement read.

The statement noted that the committee had commenced the collation of the ward congress results which would soon be made public.

We will be guided by the sacred principle of integrity, honour and respect for the popular vote, as the residence of ultimate sovereignty in a democracy, it stated.

It commended all those who participated in the exercise and hailed the healthy competitive spirit among the candidates, while saluting their unflinching faith in the party.

We enjoin those who may eventually emerge victorious in the congress to be magnanimous in victory and embrace their brothers and sisters who lost.

We should remember at all times that we are members of one family and as such embrace the enduring attributes of love, forgiveness and unanimity of purpose.

It would be recalled that violence marred the conduct of the congress in Ezza South and Onicha Local Government Area while Ezza North, Abakaliki, among others recorded peaceful conduct.
