All Progressives Congress (APC) has postponed the flag-off of its 2023 presidential campaign earlier slated for tomorrow in Abuja, Sunday Vanguard has learned.

This happened on a day the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) confirmed that its presidential campaign will kick off tomorrow in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State capital.

The postponement of the APC campaign kick-off comes as indications emerged that since the arrival of the party’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, from London, high-level consultations were still being held among stakeholders.

Last week, a tripartite meeting of the APC governors, the APC Presidential Campaign Council, PCC, and the Senator Abdullahi Adamu-led National Working Committee, NWC, was held at the party’s national secretariat, The meeting was called by the party leadership to discuss the postponed zonal tour by the six National Vice Chairmen and also deliberate on modalities for the proposed ‘APC National Conference’ which it intends to convene before the end of the year.

The national conference is part of its campaign activities which is geared towards reeling out achievements of the party since 2015.

Sunday Vanguard gathered that the meeting also deliberated on the composition of the campaign council.

Director, of Media and Publicity of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, Mr Bayo Onanuga, told Sunday Vanguard that the campaign is a marathon and had already begun in Lagos, Katsina, Benue, Kogi and several other states.

Noting that it had already begun campaigns in several states of the country, he had announced the October 10 Abuja flag-off but was quick to add that the exercise would be dependent on when the party formally inaugurates its PCC. Although the council has not been inaugurated, its Women Wing has now been slated for inauguration tomorrow at the Presidential Villa.

Asked whether the campaign would still be flagged off tomorrow, Onanuga simply said:; “No sir”.

‘Articulated’

Meanwhile, the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, said at a media briefing, yesterday, that the presidential campaign at the party kicks off tomorrow in Uyo.

Ologunagba said, “Our Party is fully prepared for an issue-based campaign and our Presidential Candidate, H E. Atiku Abubakar and his running mate, H.E. Ifeanyi Okowa are fully ‘Articulated’ for the campaign.

“The PDP will take our campaign to all the States, Local Government Areas, Wards and Polling Units across the country under the Unified Campaign Structure as approved by the National Executive Committee (NEC) of our Party.

“Our Campaign will be people-driven and focused on PDP and H.E. Atiku Abubakar’s mission to Rescue, Rebuild and Redirect our nation from the abysmal misrule of the All Progressives Congress (APC)

“From our consultations across the six geo-political zones of the country, it is clear that Nigerians across the board, irrespective of religion, ethnicity and even political affiliations accept the PDP Presidential Candidate, H.E. Atiku Abubakar as the best Candidate with the practical experience, capacity, broad-mindedness and willpower to Unite our nation, Revamp our national economy, and guarantee the security of lives and property in our country.“

He expressed confidence that Nigerians were eager to go to the polls to vote for Atiku Abubakar as President because of his track record of achievements.

2023 go bloody

Maybe they want to smuggle Tinubu out of the country again to London hospital

.

Postponed? These people don't know that the sick old bat's recharged battery will soon run down & he would be smuggled out again to London for another recharge.

Cool

Ready or not, Obi is the chosen one.

Confused party

Lol crook that cannot even visit America.. no more saraki immunity. A man that his boss could not even endorse until he picked Obi as deputy. His kind of desperation, if he enters there he would start selling human beings legally. Human heart for transplant is $150k in the human organ black market . He now claims he is Fulani but had claimed bachama tribe before them. His accomplice in crime Williams Jefferson just came out from US prison after 15 years. He diverted all the cars that were used for COJA games in 2003 to his house, bought for himself almost all the houses from that coja village..PTDF funds that ran into hundreds of millions of dollars Obj left him to manage nko? etc He said northerners are not online but deleted his tweets and FB posts condemning Deborah Samuels lynching few minutes after. Anybody expecting a better Nigeria from this man is on dreamland

On Atiku's mandate I stand gidigba

North your President 2023

Time to chop the mikano money in Uyo

APC is still postponing the flag off of its campaign council after all the mouthing? Seems they don't know what that they are up to this time around. Lies and propaganda won't work. Neither would rigging.

APC is in a state of complete confusion and infighting, they don't even have an election manifesto yet
They can't Rig like before, BVAS and the amended electoral act has dashed their hope of rigging, which is why are secretly going to various courts to file different suits asking court to bar INEC from using the BVAS machines during election and also asking another court summon the INEC chairman over his asset declaration.
