The All Progressives Congress (APC) has released its zoning list for the National Working Committee (NWC) positions, confirming earlier reports that it has zoned its national chairmanship office to the North-Central.
This is coming 17 days to the party’s elective national convention slated for March 26, 2022.
A statement by the party’s director of publicity, Salisu Na’inna Dambatta, noted that the party has also zoned the National Secretary position to the South-West, while the South-east will produce deputy national chairman (South) and South-South will take Deputy National Publicity Secretary.
The North-East is to get the deputy national chairman (North) position.
In a statement on Wednesday titled, ‘APC CECPC Approves Zoning Formula for National Convention’, the ruling party said during its regular meeting on March 8, 2022, the Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) has approved the recommendations of the Committee on Zoning chaired by the Kwara State governor, Abdulrahman AbdulRazak, which submitted its report on Monday.
