The ruling
All Progressives Congress(APC) has denied reports that its National convention
has been postponed to the early quarter of 2018.
In a
statement made available to PoliticsNGR, signed by the national publicity
secretary of the party, Bolaji Abdullahi disclosed that there was no truth to
the reports. The statement read;
"The
All Progressives Congress (APC) wishes to refute reports in a section of the
press that the Party has postponed its mini national convention to 2018.
There is no
truth in the said reports which quoted me as saying that the convention will
now hold in the first quarter of next year.
In the
interview I granted to a few journalists in my office, what I said was that the
date of the convention can only be determined by the National Executive Committee
(NEC) of the Party which will meet on the 31st of this month. At no time, did I
make the statement which the journalists attributed to me to validate the
purported postponement of the convention.
By this
statement, the general public should please take note that reports of
postponement of the APC’s mini-convention are false, as the NEC of our party
has not made any such decision."
