The All Progressives Congress (APC) on Monday said it had
scheduled its Zonal Congresses to hold on March 26.
This means its National Convention earlier set for February
26 may now be held at a later date.
The announcement was contained in a letter of the party to
the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The letter was signed by the party’s National Secretary Sen.
John Akpanudoedehe and Caretaker Chairman, Governor Mai Mala Buni.
“This notice supersedes our earlier notice for National
Convention referenced APC/NHDQ/INEC/019/22/14 this is predicated on the evaluation
of our Party Constitution,” the letter partly read.
The party’s National Convention had been a subject of debate
for weeks as usual pre-convention activities failed to hold.
Delay in conducting its convention may not be unrelated to
internal party wrangling and factions in several states.
