The President who returned to the convention ground at the Eagle Square, Sunday morning, along with the Vice President and the Senate President to witness and celebrate the inauguration of the elected party executives, remarked that the smooth conduct of the election raises the prospect of a mouth-watering APC victory next year. President Buhari was quoted to have said in a statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the President, Media & Publicity, Garba Shehu.
Meanwhile APC’s new National Chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, made a promise during his acceptance speech at the Eagle Square that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) will deliver more dividends of democracy if Nigerians vote for the party in the next poll.
The ruling party also picked Senator Iyiola Omisore as National Secretary. Other members of the National Working Committee (NWC) were also selected during the event.
The selection was majorly done by consensus as several candidates stepped down after backroom negotiations.
