The National Executive Committee of the ruling All Progressives Congress has dissolved all states, zonal, and national party structures.
The APC NEC took the decision at a meeting in the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on Tuesday.
The meeting was attended by President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.
The meeting also extended the tenure of the party’s caretaker extraordinary convention planning committee led by Governor Mai Buni by six months.
Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, who addressed journalists at the end of the meeting, said the NEC also approved the expulsion of former National Vice Chairman, South-South, Ntufam Hilliard Eta, for refusing to withdraw the court case he instituted against the caretaker committee.
Earlier, in remarks at the beginning of the meeting, Buhari appealed to party members at all levels to make sacrifices to move the party forward.
“I want to appeal to all our party members and leaders at all levels, to try and make the required sacrifices so that we are able to collectively restore our progressive and democratic political party, which can nurture and give expression to our collective dream of building a strong, united and developed Nigeria,” he said.
Buhari also spoke of the need to revive the spirit that prevailed during the formation of the APC, which propelled the party to win the presidential election in 2015.
Buhari said, “May I use this opportunity to remind all of us of the need to recreate our negotiation secret of 2012, 2013 under our legacy parties.
“What guided our success to achieve the merger that produced the APC was the respect we were able to have for each other.
“In those times, decisions reached at both formal and informal consultations were respected with trusted initiatives taken and believed that they were needed to produce the required political platform that could guarantee electoral victory.
“Everyone of us as leaders ensured that those decisions were respected.”
