2023: No rift between Tinubu, Adamu – APC

APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu

The National Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress says there is no rift between the APC’s national chairman, Abdullahi Adamu and its presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, over the composition of the party’s presidential campaign council. Addressing reporters in Abuja yesterday, APC Deputy  National Organising Secretary, Nze Chidi Duru, dismissed reports that the party had been unable to unveil the full list of members of the campaign council owing to power tussle between Tinubu and Adamu. Duru said Tinubu’s team and the party’s national leadership were working together.

He said: “There’s no power tussle over positions. None of such has happened and the party  and the candidate are working together. But it’s important to say that we agreed  on DG and spokesman.

“The governors will control the structures at the zones. The party can’t be excluded and it won’t even exclude anybody. We’ll have an embracing and all inclusive campaign council. There’s no discord anywhere. More importantly, the party chairman agreed on the issue of DG and spokesman.

“Before the INEC flag on September 28, all other positions will be unveiled. The chairman is leading the conversation.”
