The Governor of Nasarawa state, Abdullahi Sule, has claimed
that President Muhammadu Buhari has spoken about the kind of candidate he wants
to be the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress.
Sule stated this while speaking on Channels Television on
Tuesday night.
However, he insisted that Buhari did not suggest any name to
the Governors elected on the platform of the APC.
“The president said that our consensus candidate must be
somebody that is acceptable to Nigerians. Somebody who knows what APC is about.
“Somebody who must go to every part of the country and be
accepted. Someone who can win the elections.
“But if you are looking for a name, the president did not
mention a name, neither did anybody mention.
“Buhari has asked us to think about it while he is away in
Spain. He will also consult with stakeholders and the aspirants themselves. At
the end of the day, we must remain a united party,” he said.
When asked if he has any candidate in mind, Sule replied:
“For me, I have not even begun thinking about it. I will go back and sit down
with stakeholders, consult and make a decision.”
