APC postpones ward and other congresses Indefinitely

The ruling All Progressives (APC) has postponed indefinitely its ward, local and state congresses scheduled to commence on the 24th of July.

Newsflash gathered that the party took the decision to postpone the congresses owing to disagreements in the party, especially on zoning.

In a letter dated 6th July which was addressed to the Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), the party said it has rescheduled its congresses and national convention to a later date.

The letter was signed by Governor Mai Mala Buni, National Chairman, Caretaker/ Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) and Senator John James Akpan Udoedehe, the Secretary of the committee.

“The president also approved the timetable for APC ward, local government and state congresses. Ward congresses will hold 24th July 2021 followed by local government congresses on 14th August 2021 and state congresses on 18th September 2021.”
