Delegates to the ongoing All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja have expressed optimism that the party will come out stronger and more united after Tuesday’s Special National Convention.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the party has scheduled its special national convention to elect a presidential flag bearer from June 6 to June 8.
A cross section of the delegates told NAN on Tuesday at Eagle Square, venue of the historic event that they were hopeful that the party would also win the 2023 general elections.
Alhaji Sama’ila Ibrahim, from Kano State said, “APC will be more united after the primary election.
“This is because, the leaders and members of the party are real patriots, committed to the growth and development of democracy.”
Mr John Also, a delegate from Oyo State also told NAN that, “I am not in anyway apprehensive as the exercise will be successfully conducted.
“At the end, we will have a credible torch bearer who will by the special grace of God succeed President Muhammadu Buhari.
“We are here to elect a flag bearer and we promise to do it peacefully and successfully, putting Nigeria ahead of all personal interests.”
