Only National Chairman, National Publicity Secretary can speak for party – All Progressives Congress

The All Progressives Congress, APC, has warned that only the National Chairman and National Publicity Secretary of the party are authorised to speak on its behalf, stressing that “any member of the National Working Committee (NWC) or the party generally who wishes to speak on behalf of the party should expressly clear such statement with the National Chairman.”
A statement by the the National Chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, Friday, said “It has come to the attention of the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) that unauthorized persons have recently been issuing statements on behalf of the party.
“This is totally wrong and unacceptable as only the National Chairman and the National Publicity Secretary
can speak for the party on national issues.
“Therefore, any member of the National Working Committee (NWC) or the party generally who wishes to
speak on behalf of the party should expressly clear such statement with the National Chairman of our
great party.
“Also, State Publicity Secretaries of our party should restrict their statements to issues concerning their
various states,” the statement cautioned.
