Former Governor of Ogun State, Ibikunle Amosun has disclosed that he is not in the presidential race to align with any aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Amosun also said he did not obtain the APC senatorial form, neither did he attend the screening exercise organised for APC senatorial aspirants, as being peddled by some individuals.
There were rumours over the weekend that having been screened and cleared for the Ogun Central senatorial race, Amosun had agreed to step down for former Lagos state governor, Bola Tinubu.
