 APC NWC Waives Screening Requirements for President Tinubu Ahead of Primaries


The National Working Committee (NWC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has officially waived the screening requirements for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, clearing him to participate in the party’s upcoming primary elections without appearing before a screening committee.


At its 188th meeting held today, the NWC resolved to deem President Tinubu as duly screened in line with the APC Constitution. The decision was taken under the powers vested in the committee by Article 13.4 (xiii) and (xiv), which allow it to organise primaries and grant waivers in special circumstances when it serves the best interest of the party.


In a statement signed by APC National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka after the meeting, the NWC highlighted the overwhelming endorsements and votes of confidence President Tinubu has received from major stakeholders, including the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), the leadership and members of the National Assembly, and other organs of the party at the APC National Summit of May 22, 2025, and subsequent statutory events.


The party noted that as the incumbent President and leader of the APC, who was already screened and cleared ahead of the 2022 presidential primaries, requiring his physical appearance before another screening committee at this time would be “redundant and unnecessary.”
