APC disowns viral presidential campaign council list

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has denied releasing the list of members of the party’s 2023 Presidential Campaign Council.

The APC said the list of members of the council being circulated on social media and published by some online news platforms is unofficial.

The party made this known via a statement issued on Saturday by its Director of Media and Publicity, Bayo Onanuga.

Onanuga stated that the purported list was not authorised.

He, however, urged the general public to disregard it, adding that the party’s leadership and its presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu would formally unveil the campaign council.

Onanuga further urged the media to exercise restraint in disseminating information that were not correct.

While quoting the secretary of the APC presidential campaign council, James Faleke, the APC spokesperson said the various directorates of the campaign structure were still being put together.

He said it was being done in consultation with the APC governors and other critical stakeholders.
