2023: APC Approves Tinubu’s Manifesto – To Consult Buhari On Campaign Commencement Date

All Progressives Congress (APC) has reviewed and approved the draft manifesto of its Presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu to consult President Muhammadu Buhari on the date for the commencement of the campaign.

Gatekeepers News reports that the spokesperson of the APC Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), Festus Keyamo, disclosed this to journalists after a meeting of the council the Progressive Governors’ Forum and the National Working Committee (NWC) of the ruling party in Abuja.

Keyamo said the draft manifesto was presented by Tinubu to the organs of the party, adding that it got a 90 per cent pass from most of the people that attended the closed-door meeting.

The Spokesperson also said a committee has been set up to reduce the document to a simple presentation that everyone, irrespective of educational background, could relate with.

Keyamo did not, however, disclose the date for the release of the manifesto, stating that Tinubu would be the one to release the manifesto.

He said, “What we did today was to review the draft of our manifesto. Our candidate is not a candidate that operates on his own. He tries to carry everybody along. He presented a draft of the manifesto to all the stakeholders of the party. We looked at it. Almost all the stakeholders gave the draft a 90 per cent pass mark.

“We are not going to take away the thunder from our candidate. He is going to present the manifesto on a particular day, at a particular occasion.

“After that, a small committee has been set up to reduce the document to highlights— major highlights. We want to deliver and sell the manifesto to even market women, to the street traders in the most simple language. We don’t want to present a very complicated document they cannot understand.”
