APC Congress To Start July 31

All Progressives Congress (APC) is set to start its Congress from July 31.

Gatekeepers News reports that the All Progressives Congress (APC) says it will commence its congresses from July 31.

The ruling party disclosed this in a letter dated July 11 and addressed to the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Mahmoud Yakubu.

The Congress was initially scheduled to begin July 24 but postponed.

The Party earlier wrote, “We refer to our letter reference number APC/NHDQ/INEC/19/021/20, dated 10, June 2021, on the above subject and wish to inform the commission that the party has rescheduled its congresses and national convention to a later date which will be communicated to you.”

However, in the recent letter signed by the Chairman, APC caretaker committee, Mai Mala Buni, and National Secretary, Akpan Akpanudoedehe, the party said the local government and state congresses will begin when the exercise is completed at ward level.

The letter read, “Further to our letter referenced APC/NHDC/INEC/19/021/29 dated 6th July on the above subject, we write to please inform you that the congresses will now commence on the 31st July 2021, starting with the ward congress.”

“Local and state congress will follow sequentially upon the completion of the ward congress.”
