APC reportedly plans to make ex-minister spokesman

 

Ex-Minister of Youths and Sports, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi is on his way to becoming the spokesman for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

According to a report by TheCable, the ruling party  is set to announce Abdullahi as its national publicity secretary.

It was also reported that to ratify Abdullahi’s appointment, the leadership of the ruling party will organise a mini convention at Chelsea Hotel in Abuja by 11am on Thursday, December 1, 2016.

While no official statement has been released by the party on the reported development, it should be noted that the position has been vacant since Lai Mohammed was appointed minister.

Timi Frank, deputy national publicity secretary, had launched an attack against the Party chairman, John Oyegun over his perceived prevention from taking over from Mohammed.

Meanwhile, Mala Buni, national secretary of APC, has been signing official statements on behalf of the party since Frank was suspended by the party's leadership.
