Governors under the aegis of the All Progressives Congress (APC) are back in control of the party.
It has been seventy-two hours since the governors conceded the national chairmanship of the party to President Muhammadu Buhari’s choice, Senator Abdulahi Adamu.
Working in tandem with some ministers, the governors yesterday named their choices for the majority of the remaining 75 national executive committee positions.
However, missing from the Unity List released by the governors were the names of a former President of the Senate, Chief Ken Nnamani; Farouk Adamu Aliyu; Ifeolu Oyedele; and Arc. Waziri Bulama.
The politicians above had sought to vie for Deputy National Chairman (South), Deputy National Chairman (North), National Secretary and National Organising Secretary respectively.
The governors’ list itself is a product of intense lobbying, meetings and consultations over three days.
On the Unity List are Senator Abdullahi Adamu, (National Chairman); Senator Abubakar Kyari, (Deputy National Chairman, North); Emma Eneukwu, (Deputy National Chairman, South); Senator Iyiola Omisore (National Secretary); Festus Fuanter (Deputy National Secretary); Mustapha Salihu (National Vice Chairman North-East); Muhazu Bawa Rijau (National Vice Chairman North-Central) and Suleiman Mohammed Argungu National Organising Secretary).
It also contains Salihu Lukman (National Vice Chairman, North-West); Dr Ijeoma Arodiogbu, (National Vice Chairman South-East); Dr Victor Giadom, National Vice Chairman South-South); Isaac Kekemeke (National Vice Chairman South-West); Barr. Ahmed El-Marzuk (National Legal Adviser); Bashir Usman Gumel (National Financial Secretary) and Uguru Mathew Ofoke (National Treasurer).
Chief Eneukwu was National Vice Chairman (South East) of the party under Chief John Oyegun and Comrade Adams Oshiomhole’s leadership.
