The All Progressives Congress, APC, has extended the tenure of Governor Mai Mala Buni-led Caretaker Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee.
Director-General, Press and Media Affairs to Gov. Buni, Mamman Mohammed, confirmed this in a statement on Friday.
The tenure extension was reached Friday morning after the Caretaker Committee members’ meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari.
A member of the committee who spoke with The Nation in confidence said that the Committee has been given right to stay in office until it is able to conduct the National Convention, whose date is yet to be agreed upon.
“It is true that after wide consultations with some stakeholders and at the end of the Caretaker Committee meeting on Wednesday, we met with Mr. President Friday morning and he has approved our time table for the Congresses and equally granted the Caretaker Committee to stay until the National Convention is conducted,” the source added.
