LEAKED!!! Full List Of Top #APC Aspirants That Will Step Down For #Buhari’s Presidential Candidate Revealed—-Ahead of The all progressive congress (APC) national convention scheduled for Tuesday, 7th of June, 2022 in order to elect a presidential candidate ahead of the 2023 general elections, some aspirants has reportedly compelled to step down for the President’s candidate.
There have been crisis faced by the party as a result of who becomes the flagbearer of the party in the election. Most recent of the crisis was a fracas between southern and northern governors of the party during a meeting held with President Buhari some days ago. Due to the emergence of Abubakar Atiku as the candidate of the PDP, the northern governors argued that a northerner should also be picked as APC candidate to tackle Atiku in the election and of course, the southern governors didn’t find this funny as it led to the meeting ending in a deadlock.
Meanwhile, during a meeting with President Buhari, he pleaded with the governors of the party to allow him choose his successor which means a consensus may likely be used to select the flagbearer of the party in 2023.
Following President Buhari’s request, some governors didn’t buy into it as they insisted on an election taking place to elect the party’s presidential candidate because the party has several aspirants numbering close to 25 eyeing the presidential seat.
Since a consensus was not agreed, it means some aspirants will be compelled to step down for the President’s candidate to allow him record victory at the election which will be held next week.
Below are some aspirants that will agree to stepping down for President Buhari’s candidate:
