October 12, (THEWILL) – Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is currently meeting with the party’s National Working Committee (NWC), some members of the Progressive Governors’ Forum (PGF) and Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja.
THEWILL gathered that the meeting is over the controversy rocking the list of the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC).
A source privy to the development, said nine Governors on the platform of the party, the Party’s presidential running mate, Kashim Shettima, Speaker of the House of Representatives Femi Gbajabiamila and the leadership of the PCC are in attendance.
The National Chairman of the party, Abdullahi Adamu, is reportedly absent, with his National Deputy Chairman, Abubarkar Kyari standing in for him.
The Governors in attendance are Ondo, Rotimi Akeredolu, Ogun, Dapo Abiodun, Lagos, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Kebbi, Abubakar Atiku Bagudu, Kano, Umar Ganduje, Jigawa Zamfara (deputy) Kogi, Niger, Kwara, Nasarawa, Plateau, Borno, Ebonyi, and Yobe.
Sources close to the leadership of the party hinged his absence on the excuse of attending another meeting.
The parley was a follow-up to last Wednesday’s meeting over a contentious issue of harmonising the party’s campaign council list.
