The National Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress on Thursday approved new dates for the postponed elective congresses of the party’s Rivers State Chapter.
The new dates were disclosed in a statement issued in Abuja by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka.
Morka said the dates were approved at the meeting of the National Working Committee held on Wednesday at the APC National Secretariat in Abuja.
According to the revised schedule, Rivers APC will now hold its Ward Congress on November 16, 2024.
