Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni, was appointed Secretary.
The expansive committee draws heavyweight figures from across the federation, including serving and former governors, principal officers of the National Assembly, party leaders and senior stakeholders.
Among them are Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu, Rt. Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara, Sen. Ahmed Lawan, Sen. Godswill Akpabio, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje, Prof. Babagana Zulum, Abiodun Oyebanji, Umar Namadi, Dikko Radda and several others.
A statement signed by the National Secretary of the party, Senator Surajudeen Ajibola Basiru, says sub-committees of the Central Coordination Committee will be constituted and announced in due course, as preparations intensify for the convention expected to shape the APC’s internal leadership direction ahead of future electoral contests.
