The All Progressives Congress (APC) has postponed its National Convention until further notice.
The ruling party has, however, opted to conduct Zonal Congresses instead of National Convention.
The Zonal Congresses will hold on March 26, 2022.
The convention was earlier scheduled to hold on Saturday, February 26, 2022.
The indication for the postponement, though not expressly stated, was contained in a letter dated Monday February 21, 2022, which the party sent to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The letter was signed by the Chairman of the APC Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC), Mai Mala Buni, and the Secretary, Senator James Akpanudoedehe.
The letter read: “This notice supersedes our earlier notice for the National Convention referenced APC/NHDQ/INEC/019/22/14. This is predicated on the evaluation of our party Constitution.
“In furtherance to Article 85 of the Electoral Act, 2010 (as amended) and compliance with Section 12:6 of our Party Constitution, we hereby write to notify the Commission that our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has scheduled to hold its zonal congresses on Saturday 26th March, 2022.
“Kindly arrange for your officials to monitor the exercise accordingly.
“While hoping to receive your cooperation, please accept the assurances of our highest esteem.”
