Additionally, a meeting of the National Caucus, to be chaired by President Bola Tinubu, is scheduled for Tuesday at the Presidential Villa.

The agenda for Wednesday’s NEC meeting will be decided upon and prepared during the Caucus meeting.

The upcoming NEC meeting will mark the first attendance of President Bola Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima since their inauguration in May.

The NEC is the second-highest organ of the party and holds the authority to make decisions between party conventions.

As previously reported, the resignation of APC chieftains has led to the likelihood of the NEC meeting approving a timetable for a midterm elective convention to fill party vacancies.

The resignations will be formally announced at the NWC meeting, which precedes the Caucus and NEC meetings.

According to a source within the APC, four vacant positions in the National Working Committee need to be filled, and an elective convention can only be conducted with the approval of the NEC.

The source stated that if the chairman and the secretary are made to resign, the NEC will need to approve a midterm elective national convention to fill the vacant positions.
