On Monday, Bashir Ahmad, the Special Assistant to the President for Digital Communications, announced this on his Twitter account.
He posted a picture of Senators Kashim Shettima and Abdullahi Adamu, the party's national chairman, as well as APC presidential contender Bola Tinubu.
Although the precise location cannot be determined at the time of this report, they were in a meeting at the State House or Presidential Villa.
The Plateau State Governor, Simon Lalong, and the Director General of the Presidential Campaign Council are among those present during the meeting.
The alleged conflict between the former governor of Lagos State and the APC Chairman appears to have been resolved as a result of the development.
On September 29, Adamu charged Tinubu with naming the Presidential Campaign Council's members without first getting permission from the APC National Working Committee.
Adamu urged the quick retraction of the presidential campaign council list, stressing that any indication of dissension inside the party would undermine the campaign's integrity and cause unwarranted worry among party supporters nationwide.
The APC's spokesperson, Felix Morka, however, claimed in a statement that Adamu did not write the letter and that the party would not be derailed by its critics.
The "DRAFT" letter did not originate from the Party, to be clear. An UNSIGNED letter with the designation "DRAFT" cannot and should not be credited to its alleged author, according to Morka.
The National Chairman of our Party and our Presidential Candidate maintain friendly and productive lines of communication and are free to have frank and open discussions about topics that are important to the Party and our Presidential Campaign. An unsigned "DRAFT" letter of the type that is now in circulation is therefore obviously useless and adds nothing of substance to the interaction between the Party and the PCC.
"We won't be sidetracked by the desires and deeds of critics who eagerly but fruitlessly await some sort of crisis to arise between the Party and the PCC," they say.
The allegations come days after the APC candidate launched a 422-man committee made up of influential political figures and other party leaders to oversee the numerous campaign council subcommittees.
According to the Independent National Electoral Commission's calendar and schedule of events, the general election campaigns for 2023 officially began on September 28. (INEC).
