APC Primary: Adamu Announces Lawan as Consensus Candidate

Contrary to the position of most Northern Governors on power shift to the South National Chairman of thee All Progressives Congress, Senator Abdullahi Adamu has announced Senate president Ahmad Lawan as APC consensus presidential candidate.

Adamu announced this at the meeting of the National Working Committee, NWC, on Monday, in Abuja.

However, some members of the NWC, sources said, kicked against the move and insisted that other Presidential aspirants which include Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, Engr. David Umahi must be allowed to contest the primary election at tomorrow’s convention scheduled at the Eagle Square, Abuja.

Adamu’s adoption of Lawan as consensus candidate is against the position of 11 APC nothern governors who endorsed that power must shift to the South after President Muhammadu Buhari’s tenure.
Adamu told the NWC that he arrived at the choice of Lawan after consultation with President Buhari.
