The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) on Thursday announced the closure of its national secretariat located at no 40, Blantyre street, Wuse 2, Abuja.
According to a memo dated 10th April, 2025 and signed by the deputy director of administration, Ubagba Abel, the closure is to mourn the death of the party’s director of administration, Hon. Lateef AbdulRaif Adeniji.
