APC Disclaims Report on Appointment of NASS Principal Officers

By Dwelleth Morountodun

The ruling party, APC has refuted claims in some session of the media that it has appointed some principal officers for the National Assembly (NASS).

 

It said: “Our attention has been drawn to a report in circulation purporting the appointment of the remaining principal officers of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 9th National Assembly.

While urging the public to disregard the report, as it is false and should therefore be disregarded.

Mr. Lanre Issah-Onilu, in a statement added that in arriving at party decisions and indeed in its activities, the party had always been transparent, ensuring the best democratic principles are adhered to in whatever steps it takes.

He said: “Consultations are ongoing and in our typical style, we will come out to formally announce the party’s decision on the appointments.

“With the prevalence of fake news, we urge the media to always wait for and rely on official statements from the party other than unofficial sources. The media should please take due note of this on future issues that involve our party.”
