The National Convention of the All Progressives Congress (APC) will hold
not later than April 2017.
This was one of outcomes of the National Working Committee meeting which
held this week at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja. The meeting
was chaired by our National Chairman, Chief Odigie Oyegun.
The processes leading to the National Convention will commence with the
congress to fill vacancies in the state party structures across the
country.
The vacancies to be filled occurred principally from political
appointments, deaths and resignations. The congress to fill the vacancies
would be followed closely by another congress to nominate delegates into
the mid-term non-elective convention of the party.
The congresses will be followed by the National Caucus meeting, and
finalised with the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the
party, which will consider and set the dates for the National Convention,
which is expected to hold not later than April of 2017.
This is In accordance with our constitution which states that the Party’s
convention must be held once in two years.
