The All Progressives Congress (APC) has sacked former Chairman and secretary of the Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) Mai Mal Buni and Senatior John James Akpanudoedehe respectively from the membership of the committee.
Prime Business, on sighting the list of the APC National Convention Committees, had discovered that both Buni and Akpanudoedehe were missing in Central Planning Committee now headed by the new APC Chairman, Abubakar Sani Bello.

Subsequent checks further revealed that Governor Buni and his secretary were deliberately removed from membership of the Committee after Buni’s sack.
Senator Domingo Obande is now in charge of Venue/Decor/Site Servicing as the Secretary.

Sources who were privy to the decision told Prime Business Africa that a resolution to that effect was passed at the Tuesday March 8, 2022 regular meeting of the committee in Abuja, explaining that the resolution would be ratified at the Thursday March 17 National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the party.
Buni, as chairman, and a few colleague governors were accused of undermining the party’s plans for a hitch-free National Convention and had actually secured a court order stalling the Convention. The court order, according to some members of the APC, was to be made public two days to the originally scheduled March 26 Convention.
