At the party’s national secretariat in Abuja, the National Working Committee (NWC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has begun a crucial meeting.
Although the meeting’s agenda was kept a secret, it was learnt that the committee will be reviewing the recently held general elections and taking into account the initial findings of an external auditor hired to examine the party’s books in order to prepare a financial report that will be given to the National Executive Committee (NEC) whenever it is communicated.
The meeting will also consider a template for a consensus zoning formula for sharing the 10th National Assembly Presiding Officers’ positions that will be presented to President Muhammadu Buhari and President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu ahead of the June inauguration of the 10th National Assembly.
Also on the agenda is the seven petitions by the National Vice Chairman (North West), Dr Salihu Moh. Lukman and the legal action he instituted against the National Chairman and National Secretary for an alleged breach of the party Constitution.
The crisis further worsened last week with the National Legal Adviser, Ahmad Usman El- Marzuq recommending the expulsion of Lukman for dragging the party leadership to court.
The meeting is being presided over by the National Chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu with no fewer than 18 other members of the 24-man NEC currently in attendance.
