According to the letter"this notice supercedes our earlier notice for the national convention referenced APC/NDHQ/INEC/019/22/14. This is predicated on the evaluation of our party constitution. In furtherance to Article 85 of the Electoral Act,2010 (as amended) and compliance with section 12.6 of our party constitution,we hereby write to notify the commission that our great party, All progressives Congress (APC) has scheduled to hold it's zonal congresses on Saturday 26th March 2022".
