A faction of the African Democratic Congress loyal to Dumebi Kachikwu on Sunday dissolved the party’s National Working Committee and declared him its presidential candidate.
The decision was taken at the faction’s national convention and presidential primary held in Abuja, where delegates adopted Kachikwu through a voice vote.
The faction also dissolved the existing NWC and immediately replaced it with a new set of national officers.
The new executives include Kingsley Oggah as Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Abdulkadir Bashir as National Chairman, Johnny Derek as National Secretary, Kennedy O. Odion as National Treasurer, Chief Amirigoye as National Financial Secretary, as well as a National Publicity Secretary and National Legal Adviser, Dr Chris Ugwu.
