There has been a heavy deployment of security and intelligence personnel at the Buhari House national secretariat of the ruling All Progressives Congress APC following the expected arrival of the party’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima to the secretariat.
Security patrol vans were packed by the entrance of the secretariat with stern-looking officers moving around the premises.
Tinubu and Shettima are expected to attend an ad hoc meeting of the APC National Working Committee at the secretariat on Wednesday at 10:00am.
The development is coming barely three months after the party national leader postponed his maiden visit to the secretariat following his victory at the APC Convention.
Although no official statement has been released by the leadership of the ruling APC, a source said the political roundtable provides an opportunity to discuss Tinubu’s campaign manifesto and restrategise ahead of the political campaign, which kicks off on September 28.
The source also warned that the number of visitors coming into the secretariat would be greatly restricted as a means of crowd control measure and for security purposes.
The presidential flag bearer and his vice presidential candidate are expected to address the APC press corps at the Media immediately after the meeting.
