- “Our zoning arrangement will be made public when ready,” APC Caretaker Committee
The All Progressives Congress (APC) says it will make public its zoning arrangement when it is ready but denied that the matter has been discussed by the newly inaugurated national caretaker committee.
This clarification was contained in a statement on Tuesday by Yekini Nabena, Deputy National Publicity Secretary in which APC urged party members, supporters, stakeholders and indeed the public to disregard any claim of zoning for now.
According to Nabena, the first meeting of the Caretaker/Extra-Ordinary National Convention Planning Committee (CEONCPC) was held at the National Secretariat on Monday but he insisted that members did not discuss zoning of offices at the inaugural parley.
“If and when a zoning arrangement is made for the planned National Convention, it will be officially communicated and publicised”, he added.
The meeting was attended by all thirteen members namely: Governor Mala Buni – Chairman, Governor Isiaka Oyetola, Governor Sani Bello, Sen Ken Nnamani, Abubakar Yusuf, Akinyemi Olaide, Stella Oketete, James Lulu, David Lyon, Abba Ali, Tahir Mamman, Ismail Ahmed and John Udoedeghen – Secretary.
