This is even as the party screened a combined total of seventeen aspirants on Friday, in Abuja, ahead its primaries billed for May 28 and 29.
The development was revealed by Chairman of the Screening Committee, Senator David Mark, while speaking to journalists shortly after the conclusion of the exercise at Legacy House, Abuja, at 7pm.
