The disagreement surfaced during a caucus meeting in Abuja, where leaders expressed opposing views on the proposed defection.
Party members agreed to set up a committee to manage the situation and engage the national leadership.
The panel is expected to outline conditions for the governor’s entry while ensuring that local stakeholders are carried along in any decision.
Concerns over lack of consultation dominated the discussions, with some leaders warning against imposing decisions from above.
They said sidelining state structures could weaken party unity and create friction among long-standing members.
The development follows shifting political alliances, as the governor weighs his next move after tensions within the Peoples Democratic Party.
His possible defection presents both a chance to strengthen the APC and a risk of internal disruption.
