The National Working Committee (NWC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC), at its 188th Meeting, held Wednesday May 6, resolved to waive, and has waived, screening requirements for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and deemed him as duly screened in accordance with the Constitution of the Party for the purpose of participation in the upcoming primary elections.
A statement by Felix Morka, National Publicity Secretary of the party said the decision was made pursuant to the powers conferred on the NWC under Article 13.4 (xiii) and (xiv) of the Constitution of APC to organise and supervise the Party’s primaries and, in special circumstances, grant waivers, in the best interest of the Party.
The NWC noted that the President has received overwhelming endorsement and vote of confidence from critical stakeholders of the Party, including the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), the leadership and members of the National Assembly, and other organs of the Party at the APC National Summit of May 22, 2025, and other major statutory events of the Party.
It noted further that, as the incumbent President, and leader of our great Party, having been duly screened and cleared ahead of the 2022 presidential primaries, requiring his physical appearance before a screening committee, at this time, would be redundant and unnecessary.
