Gov. Abubakar Sani Bello of Niger state, has debunked taking over the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Caretaker and Extra-ordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) as speculated by some media organisations.
Bello said this when he spoke with newsmen shortly after heading a meeting of the APC CECPC at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja on Monday.
He said that he met with the APC State Chairman as well as inaugurated some newly-elected State Chairmen.
“The States Chairmen took their oath of office today and we discussed progress made so far on the forthcoming National Convention and what needs to be done next so that we will achieve the March 26 date for the convention,” he said.
It was earlier reported that Policemen took over the APC Secretariat in an apparent shake up as Bello stormed into the office and may have upstaged Buni who is out of the country.
