The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda has been appointed as the new National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
He emerged on Thursday, during the National Executive Committee, NEC, meeting of the APC.
He will replace Abdullahi Ganduje, who resigned last month, citing health issues.
The Deputy National Chairman (North), Ali Bukar Dalori, assumed office in an acting capacity after Ganduje stepped down.
Stakeholders had expected NEC to ratify Dalori’s role and give him a timeframe within which to organise an elective National Convention to choose a substantive chairman.
