John Oyegun, the chairman of the All Progressives Congress
(APC) screening panel, has given reasons why some presidential aspirants were
disqualified on Friday.
At least 10 men who were looking to contest in the ruling
party’s primary have been cut off.
While presenting a report to APC national chairman,
Abdullahi Adamu, Oyegun said: “The point I want to make is the quality of the
people that want to govern this country.
“We are a governing party and so the ability to lead, the
background, experience… it is on the basis that we made a shortlist.
“I won’t want to read the names, I’d leave that to you, but
we brought the number down to 13.
“We could have cut it a little shorter but we wanted the
younger elements to surface.”
Details of the presidential aspirants who did not make the
cut are not yet known.
