The All Progressives Congress (APC) has scheduled its National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting for Wednesday.
Governors elected on the party’s platform, members of its Board of Trustees (BoT) and National Working Committee (NWC) members, among others, are expected to attend the meeting.
This will be the first NEC meeting which the party will be holding following the defection of Senate President Bukola Saraki, Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State, Samuel Ortom of Benue and Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed of Kwara State.
