The ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, yesterday, summoned Minister of Women Affairs and Social Development, Hajia Aisha Alhassan, over comments regarding her political allegiance, ahead of the 2019 presidential elections. The party also said the minister has apologised over the comments, which it said were not well-thought out. The minister, who arrived the national secretariat of the party at about 1:45pm, was ushered into the office of the National Chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, where discussions were held behind closed doors. The minister had recently stirred the hornet’s nest when she granted a media interview where she pledged her unflinching loyalty to a chieftain of the party and former vice president, Atiku Abubakar, rather than her boss, President Muhammadu Buhari.
