President Muhammadu Buhari has asked the All Progressives Congress, APC, governors to give him the opportunity to choose his successor, just as they were given the liberty to pick theirs, and those due for second term in office got the go-ahead.
President Buhari disclosed this to the the governors in a 12-point statement that made available to newsmen by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina on Tuesday.
He said that parties globally have always relied on their internal cohesion and a strong leadership brand to achieve bigger electoral fortunes and the APC, shall not be any different, more so as they are still implementing the blueprint for a more prosperous nation.
The President appealed to all the Governors to allow their interests to converge, their focus to remain on the changing dynamics of the environment, the expectations of the citizens and the global community.
He also stated that their objective must be the victory of the party and their choice of the candidate must be someone who would give the Nigerian masses a sense of victory and confidence even before the elections.
In the build-up to the coming APC primaries, many persons have indicated an interest in the number one seat, including ministers, who resigned to pursue their political ambition.
