Some members of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) have formed a new group called APC NEC – Integrity Group.
In a letter made available to newsmen in Abuja on Monday, the group said it had appointed Hon. Abubakar Sadiq Saadu as its Chairman and David Okumba to serve as Secretary.
According to the letter, the essence of forming the group was to further sustain the repositioning efforts of the Caretaker Committee of the party and to keep the Non-National Working Committee of National Executive Committee (Non-NWC NEC) of the APC moving.
