By Court Order, APC Gets New Acting Spokesman

Mr Yekini Nabena has resumed as the Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Recall that Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu who was the national publicity secretary of the party was taken to court to challenge his status as the party’s spokesperson, and the court delivered a judgment in favour of the plaintiff and summarily restrained him from parading himself as the party’s spokesman.

Contained in a statement issued by Nabena on Sunday

“APC is a law-abiding party and as leaders of the party, we must be seen doing the right thing at all time, including respecting the order of the court.

“In lieu of this, Mallam Onilu has begun the process of vacating the order of the Sokoto High Court restraining him but pending the time this will be done I will act in his position.

“Unlike the former ruling party, APC has high regard for the judiciary and we must be seen at all time practice what we preach.”
