Reasons Why APC’s Presidential candidate may not emerge from North' - Party Chairman Reveals!

...

.The APC Chairman, John Odigie-Oyegun, spoke in Benin, the capital of Edo State, when Ijaw youths under the aegis of Izon-Ibe Global Policy Network, led by Ayubalayefa Dennis, visited him to declare their support for the APC, which they described as a progressive party that would find solution to the crisis bedeviling the country.

Oyegun, who also disclosed that he personally refused to attend the National Honours ceremony to receive his Commander of the Niger, CON, award, due to the beating up of judges and lawyers in Ekiti by political thugs, declared that the nation was heading towards anarchy and that the APC had come to the rescue.

Hear him: “We don’t believe in forced consensus like the PDP has done by saying that Jonathan is its sole candidate. What the PDP did was a forced consensus. I want to challenge anybody to state when it was said that our presidential candidate must come from the North. We have interested persons from the Southern part of this country. It is even the PDP that has decided where its candidate must come from. It has even debarred any other person from anywhere from raising his head to say he wants to be president.

“For us, it is an open field. Whoever wants to be president is free to come into the race. In fact, I wish every state can even have a presidential aspirant. The important thing is, so long as they all appreciate that at the end of the day only one person will be the candidate, they will all unite with that one person that emerges. That is what the APC represents and that is what is going to happen,” he said.
