The ruling All Progressives
Congress (APC) has postponed its convention indefinitely.
The party had initially
scheduled the convention for February 26, 2022, but issues such as zoning of
offices and crisis in some states served as a threat.
In a letter dated February
21, 2022, Chairman and Secretary of the APC Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention
Planning Committee, Governor Mai Mala Buni, and Senator John James
Akpanudoedehe, informed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of
the new development.
“This notice supersedes our
earlier notice for the National Convention referenced APC/NHDQ/INEC/019/22/14.
This is predicated on the evaluation of our party Constitution.
“In furtherance to Article 85
of the Electoral Act, 2010 (as amended) and compliance with Section 12:6 of our
Party Constitution, we hereby write to notify the Commission that our great
party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has scheduled to hold its zonal
congresses on Saturday 26th March, 2022.
“Kindly arrange for your
officials to monitor the exercise accordingly. While hoping to receive your
cooperation, please accept the assurances of our highest esteem.”
Th party is however, yet to
communicate a new date for the convention.
Sources at the ruling party’s
national secretariat had earlier disclosed that March was being
considered for the convention.
