APC leadership and campaign structures
Figures below refer to 14 August 2026 unless stated otherwise.
The claim
Current party and campaign structures, as at mid-August 2026.
Figures
APC National Working Committee, elected at the convention in late March 2026: National Chairman Prof. Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda; National Secretary Surajudeen Ajibola Basiru; Deputy National Chairman (North) Ali Bukar Dalori; Deputy National Chairman (South) Benjamin Obi Nwoye; National Publicity Secretary Felix Morka; National Organising Secretary Suleiman Muhammad Argungu; National Youth Leader Abdullahi Dayo Israel. The Renewed Hope Ambassadors is the operative campaign vehicle: Director-General Governor Hope Uzodimma, Deputy DG Governor Uba Sani, with 16 directorates announced 17–18 April 2026, including Digital and New Media (Sunday Dare), Media and Publicity (Tunde Rahman), Diaspora (Abike Dabiri-Erewa), Youth (Dr. Mustapha Abdullahi), Technology and Data (Bisoye Coker-Odusote) and Support Groups (Abubakar Rabiu Abubakar). Presidency communications: Bayo Onanuga (Information and Strategy), Sunday Dare (Media and Public Communications) and Daniel Bwala (Policy Communication) serve jointly as spokespersons; Mohammed Idris is Minister of Information and National Orientation.
The counter-argument
As at 14 August 2026 no formal APC Presidential Campaign Council or Director-General had been named. Do not state one as fact without checking.
