The All Progressives Congress (APC) has appointed the party’s Deputy National Chairman, North, Ali Bukar Dalori as acting National Chairman.
Dalori replaces Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, who resigned on Friday, and will be at the helm of the APC leadership until its National Executive Committee (NEC) meet to address the vacancy.
Daloris’s appointment was contained in a statement by the APC National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, on Saturday.
The new acting National Chairman hails from Borno State just like Vice President Kashim Shettima who has allegedly been sidelined by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and is is shopping for his replacement.
The appointment of the party chairman from Shettima’s North East and state seems to give credence to the insinuation that Tinubu will dump Shettima and go for a new vice president in 2027.
