Senator representing Lagos Central, Oluremi Tinubu and former First Lady of Borno State, Nana Shettima, will serve as chairman and co-Chairman respectively of the Women Wing.

The APC’s women’s campaign team, comprising over 1,200 women drawn from across the country, is expected to bolster the party’s gender-sensitive credentials as the APC is also the only major political party to have a female gubernatorial candidate in the 2023 election cycle.

Checks revealed that for the seamless promotion of its programmes, the women’s campaign team has been accorded a degree of autonomy to execute its activities at the national, zonal and state levels.

“Efforts are also reportedly ongoing to rally the thousands of women-focused support groups affiliated with the APC for a nationwide mass mobilisation project,” a party source said.
