By Agency Report

The National leadership of the All Progressives Congress, APC has warned the immediate past governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, to desist from distracting the party with his ambition of becoming the National Chairman of the party.

Addressing newsmen at the National Secretariat of the party on Tuesday, the National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, said there is no basis for a move to become National Chairman of the party when nothing suggests that there is a vacancy.

Posters of Yahaya Bello who completed his two-term tenure as Kogi State governor, on Saturday, were sighted less than 48 hours after, in parts of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, soliciting to be the ruling party chairman.

Yahaya Bello may have been given leverage by the uneasy silence among some stakeholders from the North Central geo-political Zone, over the emergence of Abdullahi Ganduje from Kano State, North-West Nigeria, to replace Abdullahi Adamu of Nasarawa State as National Chairman of the APC. Source AIT
