On Friday in Abuja, the All Progressives Congress said it had yet to decide where it wanted to zone its presidential ticket.
Senator Abdullahi Adamu, the party’s National Chairman, revealed this to State House Correspondent shortly after presenting the party’s governorship candidate in the upcoming Ekiti governorship election, Biodun Oyebanji, to President Muhammadu Buhari, at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
When asked where the governing party will zone its presidential ticket, Adamu said such a choice is beyond the National Working Committee’s purview and is the prerogative of the whole party, which, he admitted, is larger than the chairman.
According to him, “I am today privileged to be the chairman of the party. The party is greater than me. The party has not made a decision and I cannot preempt what the party decision will be.”
Adamu was accompanied to the Presidential Villa by the Ekiti State Governor and Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum, Dr Kayode Fayemi; Kebbi State governor and Chairman of the Progressive Governors’ Forum, Atiku Bagudu; and the National Secretary of the APC, Senator Iyiola Omisore.
