The national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole and its national leader Bola Tinubu were conspicuously absent on Thursday afternoon as President Muhammadu Buhari inaugurated a campaign team formed and led by his wife, Aisha.
Recall that there have been reports of how the president’s wife, Buhari, in an unprecedented move, announced the campaign team which will work alongside the official Presidential Campaign Council.
The campaign team is described as women and youth campaign team for the 2019 election.
The inauguration, which is holding at the Banquet Hall of the State House Presidential Villa, Abuja, began some few minutes after 3 p.m.
The team to be inaugurated is chaired by the president’s wife, Aisha, and co-chaired by the wife of the vice president, Dolapo Osinbajo.
Recall that President Buhari chairs the official APC Presidential Campaign Council. The council is co-chaired by Tinubu and they are assisted by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and Oshiomhole.
Recall also that Aisha Buhari had publicly criticised the APC and Oshiomhole over the handling of the parties primaries which led to massive defections to rival political parties across the country.
