A statement issued and signed by the party's Publicity Secretary, Omo'ba Abayomi Adesanya said the fight against corruption was sacrosanct and indispensable.
The party noted that Nigerians voted for Buhari because the President promised to nip corruption in the bud.
It expressed worry over the recent alarm raised by its State Commissioner for Information, Mr. Kayode Akinmade over allegation that some people want to use the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, to witch-hunt the administration.
APC said Mimiko and his aides should not exercise any fear if truly they had not mis-managed the resources of the state since they took over in 2009.
The statement reads, "the fight against corruption is sacrosanct and indispensable. Nigerians voted for the All Progressives Congress (APC) at the last Presidential election, amongst other reasons, because President Muhammadu Buhari promised to nip corruption in the bud. Therefore any attempt to jettison the fight, will amount to breach of trust on our electoral promises to millions of Nigerians.
"Corruption has been the clog in the wheels of our economic, industrial, infrastructural, educational and human development in Nigeria; therefore the need to fight it with all vigour and vitality is sacrosanct and non-negotiable.
