APC Campaign Council Restricts Official Spokespersons to Yari, Alake, Information Minister

General

The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council has revised its media and communications structure, limiting the number of officials authorised to speak publicly on its behalf.

Under the new arrangement, only the campaign’s Director-General, Senator Abdulaziz Yari; Minister of Solid Minerals, Dele Alake; and Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, are recognised as official spokespersons.

The decision was announced in a statement issued on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, by the Chief of Staff to the President and Deputy Director-General (Administration) of the campaign council, Femi Gbajabiamila.

Gbajabiamila said the changes were approved to ensure more coordinated, disciplined and effective communication with the public.

He explained that all individuals previously announced to speak on behalf of the council would now become members of its Directorate of Media and Strategic Communications rather than serve in spokesperson roles.

The council also advised radio and television stations to take note of the revised arrangement and direct requests for campaign representation accordingly.

It added that appropriate representatives would be designated for media appearances whenever necessary.

The restructuring is expected to centralise the campaign council’s public communication and ensure that official positions are conveyed through the three designated spokespersons.
