Tinubu Leads APC 15th NEC Meeting With Governors and Party Leaders
President Bola Tinubu attended the 15th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at the State House Conference Centre in Abuja on Friday.
The session began at 6:05 pm with Tinubu’s arrival. This marks APC’s second NEC meeting in 2025, following an earlier gathering in February, and the first since Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda assumed office as national chairman in July.
The meeting opened with a Christian prayer led by Taraba State Governor Kefas Agbu.
Originally scheduled for December 15–16, the NEC session was later rescheduled to December 18–19 and held at the Presidential Villa.
Several serving and former governors, top party officials, and principal officers of the National Assembly were in attendance. Notably, six governors who recently defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) also participated, including Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara, Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah, Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, Bayelsa State Governor Douye Diri, Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno, and Taraba State Governor Kefas Agbu.
The APC NEC is the party’s highest decision-making body between conventions, bringing together the President, Vice President, national chairman, members of the National Working Committee, governors, and other key stakeholders to make binding decisions on party administration, policy direction, and preparations for future elections.
