Merging Political Parties Disagree Over Logo for New Party APC

The meeting of the merger committees of the parties that announced the formation of the All Progressives Congress, APC, ended in a deadlock yesterday in Abuja.

Chieftains of the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN; All Nigeria People’s Party, ANPP and the Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, at the meeting called for caution, as they noted that the symbol of the All Progressive Grand Alliance, APGA should not be reflected in the logo of APC against the background of denials from the national executive of the party that APGA was not a party to the merger deal.

The merger committees agreed to convey to  the national leadership of the ACN, ANPP and CPC, the need to hold a special conventions of the respective parties involved in the merger deal for ratification of individual political parties decision to dissolve into APC.

The merger committees also constituted three committees: Constitution, Manifesto and Strategy Committees.
