The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has appointed Gov. Peter Obi of Anambra as its national leader and Chairman of its Board of Trustees (BOT) at a NEC meeting on Saturday says the National Vice-Chairman of the party, South-West Zone, Alhaji Tayo Sowumi in Awka.
This follows an earlier recommendation by the National Working Committee of the party in Abuja.
''The motion was unanimously taken by all members of NEC present at the meeting," said Sowunmi, adding that "the council equally approved the appointment of 30 persons as members of the BOT who were nominated from the six geo-political zones of the country."
He, however, said the appointment of the former Minister of Health, Dr Tim Menakaya, was stood down following objections raised by members at the meeting.
Sowumi said a committee was set up to review the party’s constitution while the list of the members for the review was approved by the NEC.
