Delegates and some ad hoc officials of the All Progressives Congress, APC, clashed at the venue of the party’s National Convention in Abuja, on Tuesday.
According to PUNCH, the misunderstanding was later resolved which gave way for the commencement of the accreditation exercise.
It was gathered that delegates are expected to be issued accreditation tags before proceeding to Eagle Square, the venue of the primary.
KEMI FILANI NEWS had reported yesterday that the National Chairman of the All Progressive Congress, APC, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, announced Senate President Ahmed Lawan as APC consensus candidate ahead of the party’s presidential primary election slated for Tuesday.
The announcement was made days after Buhari urged the National Advisory Council of the All Progressives Congress (APC), to “actively” push for a consensus candidate ahead of the party’s presidential primary.
However, Adamu’s adoption of Lawan as consensus is against the position of 11 APC northern Governors, who endorsed that power must shift to the South after President Muhammadu Buhari’s tenure.
In the latest development, the APC northern governors have forward 5 names of southern presidential aspirants to President Buhari for consideration
