He identified that the members of the committee will soon be made available.
Also, he noted that the APC Southwest Zonal Abriged committee has set up a Southwest Special Committee On Eminent Persons Engagement which will ensure that all party stakeholders and leaders are performing their expected duties towards the victory of 2023 presidential election.
