| President Muhammadu Buhari |
Ahead of the 2019 presidential election, the All Progressives Congress,
APC, has declared that there will be no automatic ticket for President
Muhammadu Buhari and other presidential aspirants in the party.
National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Yekini Nabena said there
will be no automatic ticket for Buhari because other aspirants will also
be given the opportunity to prove their worth at the primaries.
Speaking with Daily Independent, Nabena said, “There is going to be
primaries. Other aspirants will also be given a chance to test their
popularity.
“So, it is not as if there is an automatic ticket that has been given to President Muhammadu Buhari”.
Speaking on other aspirants who have indicated interest to contest
for the presidency other than Buhari, Nabena said, “Though one or two
have shown interest, the actual number will be known when the forms go
on sale.
“Yes, there are people. One or two persons have indicated interest
but when the forms go on sale, the aspirants will come out and the real
number will be known”.
