APC Shake-Up: Three NWC Members Dropped as Yilwatda, Basiru Secure Re-Election
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has witnessed a leadership reshuffle following the re-election of key party figures, with three members of its National Working Committee (NWC) dropped.
Party insiders confirmed that Ibrahim Yilwatda and Ajibola Basiru retained their positions after the exercise, consolidating their influence within the party’s leadership structure.
The development comes amid internal restructuring efforts aimed at strengthening the party ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Sources said the removal of the affected NWC members was part of broader moves to reposition the party and address internal concerns within its ranks.
Political analysts believe the outcome reflects ongoing power dynamics within the APC, as stakeholders continue to align and realign for strategic advantage.
The re-election of Yilwatda and Basiru is seen as a sign of continuity, while the changes signal the party’s willingness to make adjustments where necessary.
Observers say the reshuffle could have implications for party cohesion and decision-making processes moving forward.
The development underscores increasing political activity within party structures as preparations intensify across Nigeria.
