His possible departure has been the subject of speculation, but the source stressed that no such announcement will be made at this session.
According to the source, the meeting is just a formality meant to address ongoing concerns and prevent party members like Nasir El-Rufai, who might be trying to influence internal politics, from putting unwarranted pressure. The insider further stated, “Usually, the APC leadership should have NEC meetings every three months to assess the authority and duties assigned to them,” suggesting that the forthcoming gathering will prioritise carrying out these customary duties over resolving internal disputes.
According to the source, the new National Working Committee (NWC) under Ganduje’s leadership is significantly less controversial than the previous NWC. Abdullahi Adamu’s former NWC was characterised by major internal strife, notably a public disagreement with Salihu Lukman. There is less internal tension and a more peaceful atmosphere in the current NWC.
With Ganduje’s recent assumption of the position of APC National Chairman, the next NEC meeting will signal the beginning of a new era under his leadership. There has been a lot of political wheeling and dealing about the party’s inner workings, but the meeting is likely to be business as usual, with an emphasis on administrative issues and future election preparations.

There will be no big leadership announcements, but rather a routine assessment of the APC’s past and future intentions..…..For More READ THE FULL ARTICLE HERE ▶▶
