The All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council has announced changes to its media and communications structure, restricting the number of officials authorised to speak on behalf of the campaign.
The decision, announced in a press statement dated November 11, 2026, comes amid growing scrutiny of the campaign's public messaging and the activities of its media representatives.
Under the revised arrangement, only the campaign's Director-General, Senator Abdulaziz Yari; the Minister of Solid Minerals Development, Dele Alake, who will serve as official spokesperson; and the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, are authorised to speak on behalf of the council.
The statement further directed all previously announced spokespersons to relinquish their individual speaking roles and become members of the Directorate of Media and Strategic Communications.
Radio and television stations have also been advised to comply with the new arrangement. The council said it would designate appropriate representatives for media appearances whenever necessary.
The announcement was signed by Femi Gbajabiamila, Chief of Staff to the President and Deputy Director-General (Administration) of the APC Presidential Campaign Council.
The restructuring effectively centralises the campaign's public communication under three designated officials, limiting the authority of other campaign figures to issue statements or represent the council in media engagements.
