Glamtush reports that the All Progressives Congress (APC) screening panel has disqualified 10 out of the 23 presidential hopefuls from participating in its special convention to pick a standard-bearer for the ruling party ahead of the 2023 election.
This online news platform understands the chairman of the screening panel, John Oyegun, made this known on Friday, June 3, while presenting a report to Abdullahi Adamu, APC’s national chairman.
“First, we have 23 aspirants that we interacted with and my first comment is that we are indeed a lucky party. The point I want to make is the quality of the people that want to govern this country,” Oyegun said.
Before now, APC spokesman, Felix Morka, had said 28 presidential forms were purchased, but three persons — Chris Ngige, minister of labour; Timipre Sylva, minister of state for petroleum: and Godwin Emefiele, governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) — did not submit their forms.
