“Senator Abdullahi Adamu-led APC is not giving room for imposition of candidates. The party is providing a level-playing ground for all aspirants to test their popularity and acceptability of party members. No individual will choose candidates for the generality of party members. The validly elected delegates will decide the faiths of all aspirants”.
“There will be no preferential treatment for any aspirants before, during and after the primary elections” he stressed.
He concluded by urging all aspirants to accept the outcome of the forthcoming primary elections in good faith.
