The leadership of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) will on Monday meet with the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, his running mate, Sen. Kashim Shettima, Senators-elect and members of the House of Representatives-elect on its platform at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

The statement read: “This is to inform all Senators-elect and members of the House of Representatives-elect of the All Progressives Congress (APC) that they are invited to a parley with the party’s national leadership.
