JUST IN: APC Dissolves Presidential Campaign Council

The All Progressives Congress, APC, has dissolved its Presidential Campaign Council that was constituted to ensure the victory of the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, in the last election.

The dissolution was disclosed in a statement signed by the council’s Director General, Simon Lalong, and the Secretary, James Faleke.

Below is the statement which read in part:

“Since the campaign council began in September 2022, we have witnessed an unprecedented, relentless, and engaging mobilisation of our members nationwide and in the diaspora towards securing the majority popular votes for the Tinubu/Shettima Presidential ticket.

“The journey has been a worthy one with our hard-won victory. The credit goes to all our members, particularly the leaders and members of the various campaign directorates.

“We would like to express our deepest appreciation to President Muhammadu Buhari (GCFR) for his unwavering support and leadership throughout the campaign. We could not have achieved this level of success without his single-mindedness, commitment, and forthrightness.

“However, we have concluded that it is in the best interest of the campaign and its stakeholders for us to dissolve our council with immediate effect. This has become necessary to retune us towards the May 29, 2023, inauguration of the President-elect Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.

Commending all the council members, the council Director-General and Secretary said, “We hope that you will all continue to stay involved in Nigeria’s political process and to advocate for issues that you believe in.

“Our democracy is stronger when we all participate in the political process with patriotism. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you once again for your support, dedication, and hard work,” the dissolution statement read.
