Akpanudoedehe Reveals Whose Backing He Has In APC; What Happened To His National Secretary Position

The National Secretary of Caretaker Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee of the All Progressives Congress, Senator John Akpanudoedehe declared yesterday that he remained in office saying that President Muhammadu Buhari’s directive that status quo ante be maintained gave him the backing.

This is to debunk reports claiming that the ruling party had removed him from office.

The party’s caretaker committee chaired by Buni said in line with President Muhammadu Buhari’s directive that things should go back to status quo, Akpanudoedehe remained the National Secretary of APC.

Consequence upon this, the National Secretary and the Chairman, Governor Mai Mala Buni of Yobe State, met at the National Secretariat of the APC on Friday to continue preparations along the line of scheduled activities.

In an interview with the media on Friday, which was released by the office of the National Secretary, Akpanudoedehe also confirmed that he remained the party’s national secretary, noting that President Buhari’s directive that status quo ante be maintained, solidified that position.

Akpanudoedehe said, “Our Chairman (Buni) cannot go against the instruction of the President. In his last letter, the President has given the directive that the status quo ante should remain. The Chairman is a very brilliant man, he respects the President and will not go against that.

“I am the National Secretary of APC and the Constitution is very clear on that. The INEC has said for you to sack any of us, you need 21 days notice. I want to also thank the APC for giving content to the media houses to sell their papers. We have promoted your economy in the last month.

“I should be celebrated for standing with the Chairman. We should celebrate loyalty, integrity. You can only celebrate good. Why would I be punished for standing with the chairman? It is a virtue. So nothing has changed in APC. I remain the National Secretary and reconciliation efforts are ongoing. It is one party.”
