President Bola Tinubu attended the 15th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at the State House Conference Centre in Abuja on Friday evening.
The meeting began at 6:05 pm with the President’s arrival and is APC’s second NEC session of 2025, following an earlier gathering in February. It also marks the first NEC meeting since Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda became the party’s national chairman in July.
Taraba State Governor Kefas Agbu opened the session with a Christian prayer. The meeting had been rescheduled from December 15–16 to December 18–19 and was held at the Presidential Villa.
Several serving and former governors, senior party officials, and principal officers of the National Assembly attended the session. Also present were six governors who recently defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the APC, including Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara, Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah, Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, Bayelsa State Governor Douye Diri, Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno, and Taraba State Governor Kefas Agbu.
The APC NEC serves as the party’s top decision-making body between conventions, bringing together the President, Vice President, national chairman, members of the National Working Committee, governors, and other key stakeholders to make binding decisions on party administration, policy direction, and election preparations.
