The inclusion of the Chairman of the Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS), Zacch Adedeji, and the Director-General of the Budget Office of the Federation, Taminu Yakubu, in the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council for the 2027 election has sparked criticism, with former Kogi West Senator Dino Melaye threatening legal action over Adedeji’s appointment.
The APC had on Saturday unveiled its 108-member Presidential Campaign Council for President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid, naming Tinubu as chairman, Vice President Kashim Shettima as Vice Chairman I and APC National Chairman, Nentawe Yilwatda, as Vice Chairman II.
Former Zamfara State Governor Abdulaziz Yari was named Director-General of the council, while Imo State Governor Hope Uzodimma was appointed Secretary.
