- APC State Chairmen Back NEC’s Decision
- APC Writes INEC over New Caretaker Committee, Ondo Gov Primary
- Police Unseal APC Secretariat as Caretaker Committee Resumes
Shortly after the inauguration of the caretaker committee, Buni went to the party secretariat that was earlier sealed off by the police, to assume duties.
He arrived at the APC national secretariat in company with some APC governors and Giadom.
Buni told journalists that he would do justice to every member of the party, adding that without justice there would be no peace.
He said: “After being two-time national secretary of the party, I can say I know the party very well, I want to assure every APC member that we will do justice to every one because we have a capable team.”
The Forum of APC State Chairmen has commended the NEC of the party over the dissolution of the NWC.
Chairman of Zamafara State chapter of the party, Mr. Lawal Lima, while
speaking on behalf of the forum, described the dissolution of the NWC as
a right step in the right direction.
He stated: “I believe all the NEC members are happy with the decision, because when the leader of the party was given his speech, many things were listed, some of us were nervous, we were touched that whoever has this party at heart will be happy about this decision. The needed action has been taken which we believe will strengthen our party.”
Also, the non-NWC members of the party have dissolved the executive of the forum led by Hon. Nelson Alapa with immediate effect.
Addressing journalists yesterday in Abuja immediately after the NWC was
dissolved, the acting Publicity Secretary of the forum, Mr. Muhammed
Ibrahim, said a three-man member committee had been put in place to run
the affairs of the forum pending when a proper election would be held.
APC Writes INEC over New Caretaker Committee, Ondo Gov Primary
The APC has written the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) following the composition of a 13-man committee to direct the affairs of the party after the dissolution of the NWC.
Buni stated this in a letter dated June 25, 2020 and titled; “Composition of the National Caretaker Committee of the APC”.
The letter read: “I wish to please inform your commission that the
National Executive Committee (NEC) of our great party at its 8th resumed
meeting on Thursday, 25th June, 2020 approved the immediate dissolution
of the National Working Committee (NWC).
“The National Executive Committee also constituted a National Caretaker/Extra-Ordinary National Convention Planning Committee.”
The caretaker committee in another letter to INEC and dated June 25,
2020, notified the commission of its plan to conduct the Ondo
governorship primary election on July 20.
The Ondo State primary election letter was jointly signed by Buni and the secretary of the committee, Senator John J. Akpan Udoedehe.

The police have lifted the blockade on the national secretariat of the ruling party.
This happened moments after the NEC meeting of the party presided over by Buhari dissolved the party’s NWC.
