By Jeffrey Agbo
The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has scheduled the long-awaited meetings of its National Caucus and National Executive Committee (NEC), which were previously postponed last year.
The meetings will now take place next week, with the National Caucus meeting set for Tuesday, February 25, 2025, and the NEC gathering scheduled for Wednesday, February 26, 2025, according to The Punch.
Originally planned for September 11 and 12, 2024, in Abuja, the sessions were abruptly cancelled without explanation. This delay had raised concerns within the party over when the crucial NEC meeting would be rescheduled.
However, a leaked memo from the APC secretariat has confirmed the new dates for both gatherings.

Signed by the National Secretary of the APC, Ajibola Basiru, the memo revealed that the National Caucus meeting will be held at the Presidential Villa banquet hall at 6 p.m., while the NEC meeting will take place the following day at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja.
“Distinguished colleagues, kindly circulate the following to all party stakeholders in the states that the National Caucus Meeting of the party is scheduled to hold on Tuesday, 25 February 2025, at the banquet hall of the Presidential Villa by 6pm. The National Executive Committee is scheduled to hold on Wednesday, 26 February 2025, at the National Secretariat of the party. Best regards,” the memo stated.
