APC Releases Timetable For Convention, Says No Position Yet On Zoning
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has insisted that its proposed national convention will be conducted on February 26, as scheduled.
This comes as the party’s leadership approves the timetable and schedule of activities for exercise, less than six weeks to the convention.
In a statement on Wednesday, APC spokesman, John Akpanudoedehe, explained that the approval followed the consideration and adoption of the timetable by the party’s Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) at its 19th regular meeting held at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja.

Akpanudoedehe stated that at no time did the committee discuss the zoning arrangement for the convention.
“I am here to debunk the fake news going around on the social media that we have zoned offices. We are yet to meet on the issue of zoning,” he said.
“The news and rumour making rounds are fake news. We never discussed the issue during our deliberations. People should disregard the story because it is fake news. It is not true.”
