The National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Abdullahi Adamu, has summoned a meeting of the party’s administrative organ, the National Working Committee (NWC).

The meeting will hold on Wednesday, May 3.

The meeting is coming after the National Vice Chairman (North West) Dr. Salihu Moh. Lukman dragged the National Chairman and the Secretary, Senator Iyiola Omisore to court for an alleged breach of the party’s constitution.

Notice of the meeting to all the 24-member NWC sighted by our correspondent was issued by the National Secretary.

The notice reads: “Distinguished NWC members, HE, the national chairman has called the regular NWC meeting for Wednesday, 3^rd May 2023. This notice is given early enough to allow our esteemed members to attend. Thanks for your attention. Good afternoon everyone.

“Time of the meeting 12: noon prompt.”

It was however observed that the agenda of the meeting was not stated in the notice of the meeting.

An impeccable source in the party National Secretariat, who confirmed the notice, said “The agenda of the meeting will be forwarded to all the NWC members before Monday.”

When asked to give insight into issues to be discussed, our source simply said:”The issues slated for discussion will include the review of the just concluded general elections, consider the preliminary reports of an external auditor engaged to look into the books of the party, in anticipation for the preparation of a financial report to be presented to National Executive Committee. (NEC) whenever is conveyed.

“Wednesday’s meeting will also afford tbe NWC to mend the rough edges among themselves, especially as it regards the two letters by Mal. Salihu Lukman and the legal action he instituted against the National Chairman and National Secretary. It is going to be a loaded meeting where far-reaching decisions will be taken ahead of the NEC meeting and the May 29 inauguration of President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima.” (The Nation)
