The National Working Committee (NWC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has announced the dissolution of its Enugu State Executive Committee and the constitution of a seven-member Caretaker Committee to oversee the party’s affairs in the state.
The decision was reached during the 179th meeting of the NWC held on Thursday, October 9, 2025, at the party’s National Secretariat in Abuja, under the chairmanship of Prof. Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda.
According to a statement signed by Hon. Durosinmi Meseko, the party’s Deputy National Publicity Secretary, the dissolution followed a comprehensive review of the state of the party in Enugu State.

Two aspirants, Engr. Ojo Kayode and Mrs. Abimbola Olajumoke Olawumi, were disqualified.
In addition, the committee announced that the APC National Reconciliation Committee, chaired by former Osun State Governor, Chief Bisi Akande, will be inaugurated at a date to be announced later.
