Meanwhile, ahead of the presidential primary election of the ruling All Progressives Congress,
President Muhammadu Buhari has been warned by some leaders of the party against imposing a consensus candidate ahead of the 2023 general election.
The presidential primary election of the ruling party is scheduled to hold in May.
The party had recently produced its national chairman, Abdullahi Adamu through consensus arrangement after President Buhari appealed to governors and other stakeholders in the party.
Following the successful outcome of the convention, some stakeholders in the party are already pushing for the consensus method to be adopted during the presidential primaries.
The South-West Agenda for Asiwaju 2023 (SWAGA’ 23) has described the idea of a consensus presidential candidate as unacceptable.
The National Secretary of SWAGA, Bosun Oladele while speaking with Daily Independent, said any aspirant seeking to be the consensus presidential candidate is only trying to get the ticket through the backdoor, Naija News reports.
