The immediate past National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, has been appointed spokesman of the coalition seeking to defeat his former party and President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019.
Abdullahi is now the head of Media and Publicity committee of the newly formed Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP)
The committee has Kazeem Afegbua and Kola Ologbondiyan, spokesman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as members.
Abdullahi’s committee was among the several subcommittees inaugurated Monday in Abuja by the steering committee of CUPP.
Recall that Bolaji Abdullahi officially dumped the APC last Wednesday.
Two days later, he announced that he had dropped Buhari’s appointment.
The former minister wrote: “Following my resignation as National Publicity Secretary of APC and my decision to quit the party, I announced to the board this morning that I have resigned my appointment as Chairman, Nigeria Sugar Development Council.”
