APC Crisis: Governor Bello’s Leadership Illegal, Says Buni-led CCEPC
By Nafisat Bello
The deputy publicity secretary of the Mai Mala Buni-led caretaker leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Yekini Nabena, has declared the Governor Sani Bello headship of the party as illegal.

Relying on Presidential orders, Governor Bello of Niger state had stormed the headquarters in Abuja on Monday to take over the leadership of the party.
Yekini argued that Governor Bello lacks the locus standi to preside over the party as he remains an ordinary member of the Caretaker Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) and not the Chairman or Secretary.
He therefore faulted Bello over the call for an emergency National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting which had just ended.
Nabena described the call as a politically motivated move aimed at actualising his alleged Vice Presidential ambition in 2023.
