The All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council has restructured its media team, restricting official public communication to three senior figures.
Under the new arrangement, only the council’s Director-General, Senator Abdulaziz Yari; Minister of Solid Minerals, Dele Alake; and Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, will speak officially on its behalf.
The decision was confirmed on Wednesday in Abuja by the Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, who also serves as the council’s Deputy Director-General (Administration).
The reshuffle affects four campaign spokespersons: Alwan Hassan, Ayobami Oyalowo, Kemi Asekun-Shittu and Adamu Fanda, who have been removed from their previous positions.
Gbajabiamila explained that the affected officials would not be leaving the campaign council but would instead join its Directorate of Media and Strategic Communications as members.
He said the new arrangement was intended to streamline communication and ensure that only designated officials issued public statements on behalf of President Bola Tinubu’s campaign council.
With the changes, Yari, Alake and Idris will handle official communication, while other members of the media team will continue to support the council’s publicity and strategic communication activities.
The development marks a fresh adjustment to the APC’s campaign communication structure ahead of the 2027 general elections.
