Consultations Underway To Replace Ganduje, Says APC Spokesman

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has confirmed that consultations are ongoing to replace its former National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje, who resigned last week.

Speaking on Sunday Politics, a Channels Television programme, APC National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, said the party was moving swiftly to fill the leadership vacancy left by Ganduje’s exit.

“This is an extraordinary situation where the National Chairman of our party has resigned, and we will take steps immediately to fill that vacancy.

“The NEC meeting of our party will be convened imminently. No date has been set yet, but I believe that in the coming days we will determine that date and proceed to convene the meeting to initiate constitutional procedures and replace our National Chairman who has just resigned,” Morka said.

Further asked how soon the process might be concluded, Morka replied, “Really soon. We’ve been consulting, and there are a lot of stakeholders required for NEC to convene.

“As we speak, that process has been triggered, and consultations are ongoing. We hope that in the coming days we will be at a point where we can identify a date agreeable to all of those who need to be there to make this happen. We will continue from where Ganduje has stopped.”
