By Caleb Ishaya The ruling All Progressives Congress APC, has reschedule the sale of expression of interest and nomination forms for elective positions which was originally fixed for today. Report indicates that the new leadership of the party has also sent all the six directors at the APC National Secretariat, Abuja on compulsory leave. It was gathered that the rescheduling of the sale of forms was informed by the inability of the contractor handling the printing of the forms to deliver on time. At the close of work yesterday, the APC Directorate of Organisation was yet to take delivery of the forms. It was also gathered that the party was yet to fine-tune the guidelines for the sale of the forms and the primaries. Recall that the National Executive Committee, NEC, on Wednesday approved the sale of nomination forms to commence on Saturday, April 23. It was also confirmed that the party was yet to fix a new date for the commencement of the sale of forms. The APC National Secretary, Otunba Iyiola Omisore, in an April 21, 2022 letter, directed the affected persons to hand over the affairs of their departments to the most senior person. The decision followed the recommendation of the Transition Committee set up by Senator Abdullahi Adamu-led NWC as part of the efforts to re-organise the APC National Secretariat. Aljazirah Nigeria report that Adamu while receiving his certificate of returns from the Electoral Committee of the March 26 National Convention of the party promised to probe senior staff in the party Secretariat.
