The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Abdullahi Adamu, has reacted to the submission of the Presidential Screening Committee report.

Adamu disclosed that the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party will consider the report and immediately make recommendations.

He made this known while receiving the report from the committee Chairman, John Odigie-Oyegun, at the party headquarters in Abuja on Friday.

In his remark, Odigie-Oyegun said that 22 of the presidential aspirants supported consensus candidacy rather than a presidential primary.

The former National Chairman of the party explained that the aspirants showed a willingness to abide by the party’s decision on consensus.

He said, “All the aspirants were engaged on the issue of consensus and it was a pleasant surprise that 98 to 99 per cent of them agreed that the party is supreme, that whatever it finally decides with proper consultations, would likely be accepted.

“Though one aspirant said that; ‘Yes I will accept consensus so long as it is settled on me.’”
