There seems to be disaffections in the ranks of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) as the 2023 general elections draw near, even as the campaigns have officially kicked off.
Senator Abdullahi Adamu, the National Chairman of the APC, on Thursday, reportedly wrote and signed a stern letter to Tinubu, who is still on holiday in London, accusing him of arrogantly rejecting their input into the making of his presidential campaign council.
A 422-man committee led by political heavyweights and other important figures was introduced by Tinubu on Friday to oversee the campaign council’s numerous subcommittees.
James Faleke, the Secretary of the Presidential Campaign Council, revealed the list of members in Abuja after a series of delays and rumors about who would be tasked with directing the ruling party’s effort to maintain power at the federal level.
The campaign council chaired by President Muhammadu Buhari, has Tinubu and the APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu, as co-deputy chairmen.
The list of council members, according to a defiant Adamu, does not accurately reflect the composition of the three-man committee formed to harmonize it.
The purported letter read, “On behalf of the National Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress, I present my compliments to Your Excellency, and have the honour to convey to you, in truth and respect, the Committee’s opinion and position, regarding the above-mentioned subject matter, with a view to having a clear understanding about the respective roles and responsibilities of the principal organs of the Party charged with the duties of conducting the campaigns in the forth-coming general elections.
