BEVERLY HILLS, March 17, (THEWILL) – The National Working Committee (NWC) of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has scheduled a meeting on Tuesday to be presided by its National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole.
The meeting will hold at the party’s national secretariat at noon following weeks of a leadership tussle and conflicting court judgements over the suspension of Oshiomhole.
The call for the NWC meeting came just hours after the party suspended its National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting after the intervention of President Muhammadu Buhari and APC governors.
Announcing the NWC meeting, the party in a sparse statement issued by its spokesperson, Lanre Issa-Onilu, on Monday night enjoined all members of the NWC to attend as “important matters concerning the party will be considered and deliberated at the meeting.”
