The All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) has cancelled all planned activities to kick off its campaign on Wednesday.
There is no new date set for the postponed activities.
In a statement, Campaign Council Director General Governor Simon Lalong announced this.
The presidential campaign would begin with special interdenominational and interfaith prayers in Abuja and the capital cities of the 36 states, according to the council.
It also intended to hold a peace walk in each city immediately following the prayers.
However, Lalong stated in the statement that the postponement was necessary so that the Council could fine-tune its membership list.
The statement reads: “Recall that we had earlier earmarked a peace walk and prayers for Wednesday, September 28, 2022, to officially kick-off our campaigns for the 2023 Presidential Elections. We had also announced that the members of the Campaign Council report to the Campaign Headquarters on that day to collect their letters.
“However, due to the expansion of the list to accommodate more stakeholders and interests within the APC family, we have decided to adjust the timetable of these activities to ensure everyone is on board before activities officially commence. Consequently, the activities earlier announced for the 28th of September will no longer hold.
“As the ruling and most attractive party in Nigeria, we understand the sacrifices and understanding of our teeming members who are more than willing to volunteer themselves for this great task ahead. It also shows the enormous love that the party members have for our candidates
“A new date and timetable of events will be announced soon.”
