APC Takes Charge Of Presidential Campaign Council, Releases Fresh List

POLITICS DIGEST- The All Progressives Congress (APC) last night released a fresh list of members of its Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), naming the party’s national chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu as second in command to President Muhammadu Buhari.

The fresh list was signed by national secretary of the party, Senator Iyiola Omisore, unlike the initial 422-member list signed by the presidential candidate of the party, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The list showed that the Adamu-led national working committee (NWC) may have taken full charge of the party’s presidential campaign team.

President Buhari is still the chairman of the campaign council.

Unlike in the first controversial list, Adamu, in the fresh list, has now swapped positions with Tinubu as deputy chairman of the council, while the party’s standard bearer is now third in command as deputy chairman II, with his running mate, Kashim Shettima, retaining his initial position as vice chairman.

Plateau State governor, Simon Lalong, is still the director general, while former APC national chairman, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, remains deputy director general, Operations.

Hon James Faleke also retained his position as secretary of the council.
All members of the APC NWC, all former and present APC governors and their deputies, all members of the National Assembly, among others are members of the campaign council.

Politics Digest had reported that a meeting was held at Transcorp Hotel Abuja, where the party leadership, the APC governors and the campaign team had harmonised the list.
