The National Working Committee of the ruling All Progressives Congress has released a fresh list of 191-man council to drive the national governorship campaign taking place in Kogi State ahead of the November 11 election.

This was disclosed in a statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday night by the party’s National Organising Secretary, Suleiman Arugungu.

The development is coming in the wake of denial by the party on Tuesday that it released earlier documents containing notable names of chairmen, co-chairmen and members of campaign councils for Bayelsa, Imo and Kogi States that went viral in the media.

In the new document released on Wednesday by the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Felix Morka, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos was appointed the chairman of the Kogi campaign train, as he would be assisted by Governors Mohammed Bago (Niger) and Sani Uba (Kaduna), who were selected as co-chairmen of the campaign council.

Notable members such as the National chairman of the APC, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje; the host governor, Yahaya Bello; Minister of Works, David Umahi and Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle also completed the 191-member campaign council for Kogi State
