For the general elections in 2023, the All Progressives Congress (APC) will introduce its women’s presidential team.
This was revealed on Monday by Bashir Ahmad, the Special Assistant to the President for Digital Communications, who released a photo of APC presidential candidate Bola Tinubu, his running mate Senator Kashim Shettima, and the party’s national leader Senator Abdullahi Adamu.
Although the precise location cannot be determined at the time of this report, they were in a meeting at the State House or Presidential Villa.
The Plateau State Governor, Simon Lalong, as well as the Director General of the Presidential Campaign Council are present during the meeting.

The alleged conflict between the former governor of Lagos State and the APC Chairman appears to have been resolved as a result of the development.
On September 29, Adamu charged Tinubu with naming the Presidential Campaign Council’s members without first getting permission from the APC National Working Committee.
Adamu urged the quick retraction of the presidential campaign council list, stressing that any indication of dissension inside the party would undermine the campaign’s integrity and cause unwarranted worry among party supporters nationwide.
The APC’s spokesperson, Felix Morka, however, claimed in a statement that Adamu did not write the letter and that the party would not be derailed by its critics.
The “DRAFT” letter did not originate from the Party, to be clear. An UNSIGNED letter with the designation “DRAFT” cannot and should not be credited to its alleged author, according to Morka.
“The National Chairman of our Party and our Presidential Candidate maintain cordial and effective communication channels and enjoy full liberty of open and frank conversations on matters of interest to the Party and our Presidential Campaign. As such, an unsigned “DRAFT” letter of the kind in circulation is patently unnecessary and of no qualitative value to engagement between the Party and the PCC.
“We will not be distracted by the wishes and actions of detractors that wait gleefully but in vain for some kind of crisis to erupt between the Party and the PCC.”
