President Muhammadu Buhari and other newly appointed members have been invited to special prayers by the Tinubu Presidential Campaign Council ahead of the start of the electioneering campaign on Wednesday.
According to Track News, the campaign council’s spokesperson, Bayo Onanuga, stated this in an early Monday morning statement.
According to Onanuga, the special prayers will take place on Wednesday at 8:00 a.m. at the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) headquarters in Abuja’s Central Business District.
He directed that all newly appointed members attend the special event and actively participate in the Peace Walk to show solidarity for the All Progressives Congress Presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu.
Onanuga also advised newly appointed members to pick up their letters of appointment at the PCC headquarters, emphasizing that their appointment is a call to serve the great party, which will necessitate total dedication and sacrifice from all.
“The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council wishes to inform all members nominated to serve in the various directorates to report at the campaign headquarters on Wednesday, September 28, 2022 at 8.00 a.m.,” the statement said.
“Nominated members are expected to participate in the special prayer sessions marking the commencement of the 2023 presidential election campaigns.
“There will be a Peace Walk immediately after the prayers. All nominees will be issued their letters of appointment the same day.
“On behalf of the Chairman of the campaign council, President Muhammadu Buhari, our candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima, we congratulate all members of the campaign council.
“We know this is a call to serve the great party that will demand total commitment and sacrifice from all of us. It is the council’s strong belief that all members will work hard to deliver a resounding victory for our great party in the 2023 Presidential election.
“We also want to use this medium to express our profound gratitude to all support groups registered with the campaign council. We are aware you have been working assiduously to promote our candidates and the party across the 36 states and FCT.
“The party and the candidates acknowledge your hard work and great financial and human resources that have been voluntarily expanded since we began this journey. We urge you to continue your good work. The PCC will work with the support groups as we move along into the campaign season.
“We encourage other groups yet to formally register with the PCC to do so immediately for proper harmonisation.”
Remember that the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Saturday formed a 422-man committee to drive Tinubu’s electoral strategy in the 2023 presidential election.
According to the list released by PCC Secretary James Faleke, President Buhari will chair the council, with Tinubu and APC National Chairman Abdullahi Adamu serving as Deputy Chairmen.
Kashim Shettima, Tinubu’s running mate, was appointed Vice-Chairman, while Plateau State Governor Simon Lalong retained his position as Director-General of the council and former APC National Chairman Adams Oshiomhole was appointed Deputy Director-General (Operations).
