EKO HOT BLOG reports that the National Working Committee (NWC) of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has released a fresh list of campaign council members ahead of the November 11 governorship election in Kogi State.
The fresh list is coming hours after controversies followed a list that went viral with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, making the list of campaign council members for Bayelsa governorship election.
The APC leadership, however, has since denied the viral d ocuments containing notable names of chairmen, co-chairmen and members of campaign councils for Bayelsa, Imo and Kogi States.
This online media platform reports that the latest list was contained in a statement released in Abuja on Wednesday night by the party’s National Organising Secretary, Suleiman Arugungu.
The new document contains a 191-man council to drive the national governorship campaign in Kogi State.
According to the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Felix Morka, Lagos State’s Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu will chair the Kogi campaign train.
Sanwo-Olu will be assisted by Governors Mohammed Bago (Niger) and Sani Uba (Kaduna), who have been selected as co-chairmen of the campaign council.
Notable members such as the National chairman of the APC, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje; the host governor, Yahaya Bello; Minister of Works, David Umahi and Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, also completed the 191-member campaign council for Kogi State.
