LAGOS — As jostling for various positions gathers more steam, there was tension, yesterday, as the national secretariat of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, witnessed an unusual huge police presence.

Policemen in several Hilux vans were stationed in strategic locations along the secretariat on Blantyre Street, in what party sources said was to forestall any breakdown of law and order following continued interplay of forces that led to scheduling the convention for February 26.

Meanwhile, the APC has denied zoning party offices while releasing the time-table and schedule of activities for its national convention slated for February 26.

Vanguard exclusively reported on Wednesday that the Governor Mai Mala Buni-led Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee, CECPC, would release a comprehensive time-table for the convention, yesterday. The CECPC considered, adopted, and released the time-table at its 19th  regular meeting.
