Tinubu To Attend APC National Caucus Meeting Today

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has confirmed that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will chair today’s National Caucus meeting at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
This was announced by the party’s National Secretary, Ajibola Basiru, in an interview with the press.
“By the grace of God, the President will be there. He has already confirmed his attendance,” Basiru stated.

He also denied concerns that the Caucus and National Executive Committee (NEC) sessions, slated for Tuesday and Wednesday, might be postponed again.

“No, nobody is postponing anything. The National Caucus and the NEC sessions will still be place Tuesday and Wednesday as scheduled,” he assured.

The sessions were initially slated for September 11 and 12 last year but were indefinitely postponed without an official explanation. At the time, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, had pledged that a new date would be announced later.

Despite repeated inquiry, the APC remained mute on rescheduling the NEC meeting, with National Working Committee (NWC) members simply claiming that it would happen “very soon.”

However, a leaked memo signed by Basiru has now confirmed that the National Caucus meeting will take place today, February 25, at the Presidential Villa banquet hall, while the NEC meeting is slated for February 26 at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja.

The message stated: “Distinguished colleagues, kindly circulate the following to all party stakeholders in the states that the National Caucus of the party is scheduled to hold on Tuesday, 25 February 2025, at the Banquet of the Presidential Villa by 6 pm.

“The National Executive Committee is scheduled to be held on Wednesday, 26 February 2025, at the National Secretariat of the Party. Best regards.”

The meetings will be presided by President Bola Tinubu, with Vice President Kashim Shettima and former President Muhammadu Buhari also slated to participate.

Other guests include APC National Chairman Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, Senate President Dr. Godswill Akpabio, former Senate Presidents, past and present APC governors, former and sitting Speakers of the House of Representatives, state party chairmen, the NWC, and other key players.

These meetings signal a momentous moment for Ganduje, since they will be the first NEC and Caucus sessions since he entered office as APC National Chairman.
