APC disbands campaign Spokespersons, restricts official briefings to Yari, Alake, Idris
The All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council has dissolved its previously announced team of spokespersons, limiting official communication on behalf of the campaign to three principal officials.
Under the new arrangement, only the council’s Director-General, Senator Abdulaziz Yari; Minister of Solid Minerals, Dele Alake; and Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, are authorised to speak for the campaign.
The decision was announced in a statement issued by the Chief of Staff to the President and Deputy Director-General (Administration) of the council, Femi Gbajabiamila.
The development means that all other individuals previously appointed as spokespersons are no longer authorised to make official statements on behalf of the APC Presidential Campaign Council.
According to the statement, the reorganisation is intended to ensure “more cohesive, disciplined, and effective public engagement.”
Under the new arrangement, all individuals previously authorised to speak for the campaign will become ordinary members of the Directorate of Media and Strategic Communications.
