Last-minute scheming for the All Progressive Congress national convention saw a good number of governors from the party meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday.

They have, however, pledged to align with any candidate of Buhari’s choice, especially for the chairmanship position which will be keenly contested this weekend.

Recall that despite initial scepticism that greeted plans for the convention, the party stakeholders are finalising logistic arrangements for the convention which holds this March 26th.

The governors were led to the meeting by the Chairman of the Interim Committee of the party and Governor of Yobe State, Mai Bala Buni.

The chairman of Progressive Governors Forum (PGF) and Governor of Kebbi State, Atiku Bagudu, said they will support any process that would lead to a consensus.

Recall Buhari had last month said he was in favour of the consensus model for selecting candidates for the party’s national positions.

He had urged the governors to explore the option of consensus.

Tinubu is finished

Our party is a Democratic Party. At the same time we will always urge consensus & respect for decisions of the party. We will support any process that can lead to consensus.

In the event that people choose to go against the grain, the Party Constitution allows it.

The plot is thicker than akamu, but unfortunately tinubu and his urchins can't catch up.

Only that DailyPost did not complete the statement of Bagudu on consensus.

Below is the full statement!

Let’s see how it goes on Saturday. On Adamu, CPC faction already ditched him and he wasn’t among accredited chairmanship aspirant for the congress. Let’s see how it plays out.

Folks let's get ready to watch TLC( Table ladder chair) match on Friday. If Tinubu is not careful he will come back with a broken head and torn trouser which might reveal the pampers he would be wearing on that day

Penguin2:
What if there was never any crisis within the governors?

What if they were just putting up an act.

To confuse Tinubu and opposition from knowing the direction they wanna go and planning against it.

Now, it’s two days before the convention and they are aligning to deliver Buhari candidate.

What if Adamu is actually not Buhari candidate but got false endorsement as Red Haring?

What if Elrufai’s ‘outburst’ was part of the script?

After I read that the north has a coven of Oxford and Harvard trained intellectuals who draw up their strategies from it’s passed to Emirs and the rest for implementation, I started taking the north more seriously rather than seeing them as bunch of illiterate buffoons.

For me, as long as things don’t favour Tinubu, I’m fine.
