The All Progressives Congress (APC) has
endorsed the nomination of President Muhamadu Buhari as the Presidential
candidate of the party for the 2019 general election.
About 7000 delegates from across the 36 states
and the FCT participated in the exercise which took place at the Eagle Square
in Abuja.
The exercise which was initially scheduled to
begin at 2.00pm was rescheduled to 6.00pm and later 8.00pm.
However, it was a hectic time for delegates
finding their way into the square as the security personnel initially locked
the gates, creating a long line of desperate delegates wishing to find their
way into the square.
Senator representing Kaduna Central, Senator Sheri Sani told
The Nation that the support given to the President across the country is a vote
of confidence on his ability to pull the nation out of the wood.
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, National leader of the
APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Senate leader, Ahmed
Lawan, Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yusuf Lasun,
Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, former
Chairman, Chief John Odigie Oyegun, former Senate President, Ken
Nnamani, State governors, former governors such as Emmanuel Uduaghan and
Ibrahim Shekarau among others attended the convention.
