Why is Adamu conspicuously absent at APC NWC meeting with Tinubu, governors?
Meanwhile, the national chairman of the APC, Abdullahi Adamu, was obviously absent at the meeting of the party's stakeholders with the presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu.
Recall that Adamu has allegedly written a letter to Tinubu, accusing the presidential hopeful of breaking his agreement with the party on the PCC's list.
Though the party later dissociated itself from the letter, a source revealed that Tinubu had decided to take the bull by the horn and called all aggrieved members to the political round table.

In another development, the national women leader of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) Betta Edu has explained the omission of her name from the women's campaign list.

Edu, however, reiterated that she still remains the number one woman of the ruling party.
