APC Names PDP Senator In Tinubu Campaign (DETAILS)

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has named a senator of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) as a member of the campaign team for Bola Ahmed Tinubu, its presidential candidate for the 2023 election.

PDP Senator representing Enugu East Senatorial District Chimaroke Nnamani made the APC presidential campaign council released by the secretary of the council, James Faleke, on Wednesday.

Nnamani, a former Enugu State governor, is in the 350th slot on the 422-member campaign council. He is listed as a member of the local government directorate.

The PDP senator last month praised Tinubu as a strong politician who he admires his political achievements but said he would vote for PDP presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar.

The APC 422-member presidential campaign council to be inaugurated on Monday is chaired by President Muhammadu Buhari with vice president Yemi Osinbajo and former transportation minister Rotimi Amaechi missing on the list.

Tinubu and APC chairman Abdullahi Adamu were named as the deputy chairmen of the council while the vice presidential candidate, Kashim Shettima, will serve as vice chairman.
