Nigeria’s governing party, the All Progressives Congress, APC, has dismissed as fake, a list in circulation purporting to be the resolution of the party on the zoning arrangement ahead of the 2023 presidential election.
The report said that the APC had zoned positions like the presidency, National Chairman amongst other to different geopolitical zones of Nigeria.
In a statement, the APC National Secretary, Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee, Senator John Akpanudoedehe, urged Nigerians to disregard the purported list, describing it as fake.
“I want to mute the speculation. The list is not from us ( Caretaker Committee). There is no way such a decision will be taken without consulting with the President, consulting with the governors and other major stakeholders. People should disregard the list. We are focused on delivering our mandate and we are to do it right,” he said.
