Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), disclosed that the party’s National Working Committee (NWC), under his leadership, inherited a staggering debt of N8.9 billion.
He made this revelation during the ongoing National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the APC in Abuja.
According to Ganduje, the debt was incurred due to expenses related to pre-election legal battles, election cases, and appeals for legislative, governorship, and presidential elections.
The total liabilities amount to N8,987,874,663, stemming from various legal engagements.
However, he assured that the party’s National Legal Adviser, Prof. Abdul Kareem Kana (SAN), has been actively working to reduce the financial burden.
Ganduje also appealed to the National Executive Committee for intervention in managing the debt.
The meeting was attended by key party leaders, including President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Vice President Kashim Shettima, Senate President Godswill Akpabio, Speaker of the House of Representatives Tajudeen Abbas, state governors, NWC members, and other prominent APC figures.
