Members of the All Progressives Congress’ National Working Committee are divided over the nomination of a consensus presidential candidate for the party.

It was gathered that Senator Abdullahi Adamu announced Senate president Ahmad Lawan as APC consensus presidential candidate during the meeting of the National Working Committee, NWC, on Monday, in Abuja.

However, some members of the NWC, kicked against the move and insisted that other Presidential aspirants which include Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, Engr. David Umahi must be allowed to contest the primary election at tomorrow’s convention scheduled at the Eagle Square, Abuja.

Adamu’s adoption of Lawan as consensus candidate is against the position of 1o APC nothern governors who endorsed that power must shift to the South after President Muhammadu Buhari’s tenure.

According to Adamu, he arrived at the choice of Lawan after consultating with President Buhari.

Although, President Buhari has maintained his position on the consensus arrangement, no agreement has been reached.
