The All Progressives Congress (APC) has set up a high-powered Screening Committee ahead of its forthcoming national convention, with former Abia State Governor and Senator representing Abia North, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, appointed as Chairman of Team B.


Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Oyebanji, will chair Team A of the committee.


The party announced the composition of the committee on Monday, March 23, 2026. Senator Kalu’s team is expected to play a key role in ensuring a transparent, credible, and seamless screening of aspirants vying for various national positions at the convention.


Serving as Vice Chairman of Team B is former Ogun State Governor and Senator, Gbenga Daniel, while Sarafa Alli will serve as Secretary.


Other prominent members of the committee include Senators Osita Izunaso and Kabiru Ibrahim Gaya, as well as notable figures such as Adebayo Adelabu and Uju Kennedy Ohanenye, among several other stakeholders drawn from across the country.


Party insiders say the composition of the committee reflects the APC’s commitment to inclusiveness, experience, and institutional balance. The diverse membership is expected to bring credibility and depth to the screening process, thereby strengthening confidence among party members and aspirants.


A senior party official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said: “The APC is determined to set a high standard with this convention. The screening committee has been carefully selected to uphold fairness, integrity, and due process. This is about strengthening internal democracy and consolidating the party’s unity ahead of future electoral engagements.”
