The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), on Friday, screened all the 17 presidential aspirants gunning for its ticket.

At end of the exercise, two of them were, however, disqualified from the race.

The nine-member screening committee led by former Senate President, David Mark, met with all the aspirants at Legacy House, which is used by the party as its presidential campaign office.

Mark, who disclosed this to journalists after the screening process, refused to divulge the names of the disqualified aspirants. He also refused to state the reasons why they were disqualified.

The screening procedure include, checking for their academic qualifications, tax returns; voters cards, financial capacity; party membership; and their proof of their nationality.

However, the aspirants screened by the committee were former vice president, Atiku Abubakar; Sokoto State governor, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal; immediate past president of the Senate, Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki; former Secretary to the government of the Federation, Anyim Pius Anyim.
