SAN FRANCISCO, December 18, (THEWILL) – The All Progressives Congress (APC) has named Rivers State Governor, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, as the Director-general of the APC Presidential Campaign Organization, which the party said will drive its efforts to win the 2015 presidential election.

In a statement issued in Lagos on Thursday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the announcement followed the hugely successful convention at which its presidential candidate, Gen.

APC thanked Nigerians for their support and prayers toward the success of the convention, the emergence of Gen. Buhari as the APC presidential candidate and the choice of Prof. Osinbajo as his running mate.
