Oyegun, Others in Last-Ditch Effort to Remain in Office

The Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, and other members of his executive have not given up on their plans to remain in office as they have made a last minute ditch effort to sabotage the party’s convention slated for May 14, 2018.

The new plan, according to people who are familiar with the issue, is to push for a convention by affirmation and not election.
The plan is to ensure that executives at all levels retain their positions by affirmation.

At a meeting of the North-central zone of the party held last weekend in Jos at the office of the Plateau State Governor, Simon Lalong, and some Oyegun loyalists pushed the suggestion that the convention be held by affirmation.
