Except for Abuja’s city centre, APC successfully conducts party congress in the FCT

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has shifted local council congresses for the Abuja Municipal Area Council to Tuesday.
According to the Chairman of the Congress Supervisory Committee in the Federal Capital Territory, Ambassador Abubakar Shehu Wurno, who spoke with Thisday, the postponement was as a result of the inconclusive congress in one of the 12 wards (Kabusa) in the AMAC. He said efforts to agree on a consensus arrangement in the Kabusa ward failed, hence the decision
to hold fresh congress to elect officials.
“The conduct of our congress in the FCT is going on very well and there are no problems so far. We are having local council congress simultaneously in Abaji, Gwagwalada, Kuje, Kwali and Bwari area councils. We had already carried out the congress in the 62 wards that make up the FCT with leaders of party emerging at those levels,” he said.
From the Sunday results of the congress, Alhaji Hussaini Deze and Isa Musa Maimaggi emerged as the chairman and deputy chairman for Gwagwalada while Muhammed Sani Zampara was elected Secretary.
In Kwali, Hon Aliyo Yahaya  and Anze Barde won the chairman and deputy chairman contests with Danlamika Ibrahim scaling through as Secretary.
Mr Godwin Z. Payi  and Isah Saliuw Garba got elected as chairman and deputy chairman in Kuje respectively, Idris A. Bba joins them as Secretary.
For Abaji, Abdulrahman Ajiya  and Muhammad B. Haruna were elected chairman and Deputy Chairman while Abubakar Y. Mairiga got picked as the Secretary.
As for Bwari, Hon. Aliyo Tanko and Haruna Ismaila were elected as chairman and deputy with Shuaibu Musa emerging as Secretary.
According to Wurno, no petitions have been received by the election committee so far in the FCT – always a good sign.
