EDITOR’S PICK:

EKO HOT BLOG reports that President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday urged members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to remain united and avoid acrimony, rallying delegates at the special convention to consider voting for the presidential candidate with the best chances of securing victory in the 2023 general elections.

In his address at the Eagle Square in Abuja, the venue of the special convention, the President said the critical task ahead of the Abdullahi Adamu-led National Working Committee (NWC) “remains to continue to forge the unity of purpose among party members and to keep securing needed compromises in the interest of the party.”

The President, who spoke to the delegates before the voting exercise to elect the presidential candidate, urged party officials and delegates to follow due process and abide by all extant laws and regulations pertaining to the election of the party flag bearer.

He said the flag bearer must be a knowledgeable, fair-minded nationalist with a very strong belief in the unity of the country and strength of character and purpose to steer the country forward.

“My fellow party members and compatriots, I commend you for your various roles and contributions towards the successful conduct of the various APC primaries across the nation,” he was quoted as saying in a statement by his media adviser, Femi Adesina. “I commend the party stakeholders, officials, organs, and the Abdullahi Adamu-led NWC.

“I commend your efforts in organising party exercises and urge you not to rest on our achievements so far. Now we have a big task ahead: the special convention for the presidential primary.
