The APC governors, led by their Chairman and Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma, and members of the NWC, led by the party’s National Chairman, Nentawe Yilwatda, are meeting at the Imo State Governor’s Lodge in Asokoro, Abuja.
Governors already in attendance include Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang; Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani; Kebbi State Governor Mohammed Idris; Ebonyi State Governor Francis Nwifuru; Sokoto State Governor Ahmad Aliyu; Kogi State Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo; Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia; Taraba State Governor Agbu Kefas; Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno; Ondo State Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa; and Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, among others.
Party sources said that key items on the agenda include the ongoing electronic registration exercise, the conduct of ward and local government congresses, and other pressing national and party-related issues.
