Buhari’s Choice of Candidate Remains Unknown
While the Chief John Oyegun-led APC convention committee is holding its presidential screening ahead of the party’s primary, President Muhammadu Buhari is meeting with governors elected on the platform of the All Progressive Congress.
The meeting is currently ongoing at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
The meeting holding at the Council Chambers may focus on the presidential primary slated for early next month.
The opposition Peoples Democratic Party just held its presidential primary which led to the emergence of the Atiku Abubakar as its candidate.
APC is working assiduously to ensure that a candidate who can match the strength and the popularity of Atiku emerges.
Meanwhile, Sen. Bola Tinubu, a frontline presidential aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Monday appeared before the party’s John Odigie-Oyegun-led seven-man Presidential Screening Committee.
According to a statement issued by Mr Bayo Onanuga, Director-General Tinubu Campaign Organisation, the former two-term Lagos State governor answered questions bordering on his upbringing, educational and professional background at the screening.
Onanuga said Tinubu, who is also one of the leaders of the APC, told the panel why he is qualified to fly the flag of the APC as its 2023 presidential candidate.
