The All Progressives Congress (APC) has appointed Plateau State Governor, Simon Lalong, as the Director-General of its presidential campaign council.

Simon Lalong Named DG Of APC Presidential Campaign

APC national chairman, Abdullahi Adamu announced the development on Thursday while speaking with journalists after a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari.

Also present at the meeting were Bola Tinubu and Kashim Shettima, APC presidential and vice-presidential candidates, respectively.

Adamu also said the minister of state for labour and employment, Festus Keyamo, would serve as “interim spokesperson” for the presidential campaign council.

When asked why the party arrived at the choice of Lalong as the campaign director general, Adamu said it was based on the govenor’s ability to deliver.
