The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council (APC-PCC) has restructured its Directorate of Media and Strategic Communications, restricting official communication on behalf of the campaign to three designated spokespersons.
The decision, according to a statement signed by the Chief of Staff to the President and Deputy Director-General (Administration) of the APC-PCC, Rt. Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, is aimed at ensuring more cohesive, disciplined and effective public engagement.
Under the new arrangement, only the campaign’s Director-General, Senator Abdulaziz Yari; the Minister of Solid Minerals Development, Dele Alake, who will serve as the official spokesperson; and the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, are authorised to speak on behalf of the Council.
The statement, dated November 11, 2026, directed all previously announced persons designated to speak for the campaign to henceforth dissolve into the Directorate of Media and Strategic Communications as members.
It also advised radio and television stations to take note of the changes and comply with the new communication arrangement.
The Council explained that it would delegate appropriate persons to represent the campaign during media appearances whenever necessary.
The restructuring appears designed to streamline the campaign’s public communication, establish a more coordinated messaging system and prevent conflicting statements from individuals speaking in the name of the Council.
