We have been mandated by the national executive committee of our party to brief you on the outcome of our meeting which just ended. The meeting is a mix of physical and virtual meeting with all the governors,
members of the National Assembly in the NEC, Mr. President meeting physically in the council Chambers while other members of the national executive committee joined us virtually.
National Executive Committee of the party approves the extension of the tenure of
Caretaker/Extraordinary National Convention Planning Committee led by Mai Mala Buni, which expires in December 25, 2020 for another six months period, to terminate on 30th of June, 2021. This is to enable the Caretaker and Convention Planning Committee to conclude its
assignment as laid before NEC.
NEC has also donated its powers as enshrined in Articles 13.3 Subsection 5 and 13.3 Subsection 6 of the APC Constitution to the Caretaker and Convention Planning Committee.
The second resolution is that NEC has approved the granting of wavers to
persons who have recently joined the party members and those desirous of joining the party in the nearest future. By this, such new members will enjoy all the benefits and privileges accruable by virtue of their membership of the party. So they will be able to contest for
positions in the party, they will be able to contest elections without any requirement of being members for number of years or period of time.
Third resolution, NEC approved the expulsion of Ntufam Hilliard Eta from the party for flaunting the directives of NEC to discontinue
all litigation against the party and its members.
The fourth resolution, NEC approved the immediate dissolution of the party organs at the polling units, wards, local government, states and zonal levels as well as the non National Working Committee component of the National
Executive Committee as well as their immediate reconstitution and composition of the dissolved EXCOs to serve in their respective offices in a caretaker committee capacity but excluding the non-NWC members of NEC.
Finally, the NEC condemns in very strong terms, the call by the
@OfficialPDPNig leadership and some of their cheer leaders for the resignation of Mr. President. NEC observes that security challenges though regrettable can only be addressed when all interest, civil and military, governments and opposition, security forces and indeed all
citizens collaborate irrespective of party affiliation. This is not the time to politicize security.

Last night, the President sacked the director general of the National Directorate of Employment (NDE), Nasiru Ladan Argungun for obvious various offences ranging from insubordination of his Supervising Minister, the Honourable
Minister of State, Labour and Productivity, @fkeyamo, SAN and being a clog in the wheels of the Administration's progress.
Not many knew that both Keyamo and Argungun had been having a silent fierce battle on who should direct the Special Public Works job where 774,000
Nigerians have been recruited by the FG, since the @HouseNGR summoned both of them months back which stirred a heated argument. The erstwhile DG began disrespecting Keyamo after the @SPNigeria asked him to take control of the Programme and report directly to the @nassnigeria
