The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has dissolved all local, state, zonal, national structures of the party with immediate effect.
This was at the ongoing emergency virtual meeting of the Committee on tuesday at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The Committee has also extended the tenure of the caretaker committee by six months.
NEC directed new members of APC to be granted waivers so they can contest for elections without having to wait for two years which was done previously.
The committee also urged the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) not to politicize insecurity but to collaborate with the government to end the insurgency affecting the country
It would be recalled that the party had in late November scheduled the meeting to review its position and deliberate on its next line of action as it concerns its national leadership.
The National Chairman of the party’s Caretaker and Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee and governor of Yobe State, Mai Mala Buni, has led other members of the party’s NEC, including President Muhammadu Buhari, into the meeting.
The Senate President, Senator Ahmad Lawan; Speaker of the House of Representatives are in attendance, physically.
Also, governors of the party, led by the Chairman of the Progressive Governors’Forum (PGF) and governor of Yobe State, Atiku Bagudu, are all physically in attendance.
