The appointment of former Zamfara State Governor, Abdul’aziz Yari, as Director-General of the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council has received commendation from APC-aligned groups, who expressed confidence in his ability to mobilise support and deliver victory for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 election.
Transparency Watch, a good governance and accountability group, described Yari’s appointment as well-deserved, citing his political experience, commitment and contributions to the affairs of the ruling party.
In a statement on Wednesday by its Director of Public Affairs, Cliff Richards, the group said Yari had demonstrated sufficient experience in governance and party politics to handle the responsibility.
The PUNCH reports that the Presidency on Saturday formally constituted the APC Presidential Campaign Council ahead of the 2027 general elections, naming Yari as Director-General, with Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima as Chairman and Vice Chairman respectively.
The APC National Chairman, Prof Nentawe Yilwatda, was also named Vice Chairman and Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma, was appointed Secretary.
