Former All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential
aspirant, Senator Orji Uzu Kalu, has revealed that the National Chairman of the
party, Abdulahi Adamu and the party’s National Working Committee, NWC would
present the Senate President, Ahmed Lawan to President Muhammadu Buhari for
endorsement.
News earlier emerged that Senator Abdulahi Adamu picked the
Senate President as consensus candidate of the party as it’s primary election
holds on Tuesday.
The NWC and President Buhari had denied picking a consensus

would decide who flies the flag of the party in 2023 presidential election.
But Kalu, the Chief Whip of the Senate who congratulated Lawan in a statement he personally signed on Monday, said Senate President would be presented to Buhari for endorsement.
He wrote, “Sen Abdulahi Adamu has through a vigorous
evaluation of all our able and qualified candidates, decided in the interest of
our party and the future wellbeing of millions of Nigerians who look to our
party for continuous leadership, decided that Senator Ahmed Lawan is the
strongest and most suitable candidate to be the flag bearer of our party in the
upcoming Presidential election.
“The National Chairman and NWC of our party will present
Senator Ahmed Lawan to the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria for his
endorsement.”
