A total of 179 persons have indicated interest to contest for the 21 National Working Committee (NWC) positions at the forthcoming national convention of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Katsina State Governor and chairman of APC Screening Committee, Aminu Bello Masari who disclosed this also assured that the committee’s report would be submitted on Tuesday.
He said the pre-qualification to be screened is to contest for positions ceded to a particular zone. “The total numbers of aspirant nationwide about is 179, though specifically I cannot immediately tell you their geographic spread”, the governor stated.
On whether his committee may disqualify any aspirant, Masari said, “It is premature for me to say. I think the report will be presented by Tuesday.” On whether APC was still maintaining the zoning formula, the governor said, “You can only contest for any position zoned to your zone. So far, those who applied for positions from the Northwest are from the Northwest; nobody from the Northeast or elsewhere applied for the positions zoned to the Northwest.”
