The All Progressives Congress (APC) said that it has reached over 20 million Nigerian electorate on telephone conversation in furtherance of its presidential campaign. The Director of Field Operations of the APC Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), Malam Nuhu Ribadu stated this yesterday in Abuja.
Ribadu, who spoke at the secretariat of the Field and Operation Directorate said his team has carried the Presidential campaign to every community in the country through its door-to-door and telephone calls campaign.
He said the Directorate was divided into three sub-committees for effective campaign. According to him, the sub-committees are: Telephone call team, Door-to-Door canvassers and Social Media team.
He posited that why the Directorate adopted the three sub-committees is because one of it must get to at least 1 out of 50 million electorate.

The former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission said that his Directorate was carrying out its functions through voluntary contributions from members.
He stated that majority of the 67, 000 youths working under his Directorate as door-to-door canvassers or telephone canvassers are doing so as volunteers.
“Everybody working here is working as a volunteer. We don’t have money but we are doing the job given to the Directorate.
“We have the Christian, Muslim and ethnic organizations working with us to campaign to Nigerians.”
On the message of the Directorate, Ribadu said that their campaign was not to run down any candidate but to tell the electorate what the President has done and what the President would do if reelected.
According to him, the Directorate has done so much in terms of campaign and has received positive response from the electorate. He however asked the Presidential Campaign Council to assist the Directorate so it could reach those who have not been reached.
