BEVERLY HILLS, November 20, (THEWILL) – President Muhammadu Buhari has confirmed the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Executive Council (NEC) meeting for Friday while the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) is expected to hold an emergency meeting on Wednesday in Abuja.
The APC’s emergency meeting was aimed at setting agenda for the National Caucus meeting of the party as it would lay the foundation for deliberations at the caucus meeting.
Vacant leadership positions in the party are also expected to be on the front burner as new occupants could emerge this week subject to ratification by the NEC.
Reports indicate that zonal chairmen had been asked to come with the names of candidates for the vacant positions in their zones for deliberation first at the NWC meeting, then at the caucus meeting.
In the same vein, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will also hold an emergency meeting today to deliberate on Saturday’s governorship elections in Kogi and Bayelsa States, which they lost.
The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, on Tuesday confirmed the party’s meeting in Abuja.
