He described himself as a leading aspirant that
would win overwhelmingly if the process is transparent and credible.
Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State has warned the
All Progressives Congress, APC, that excluding his name on the ballot in
today’s convention to elect the party’s presidential flag bearer for the 2023
election will be a recipe for trouble.
Governor Bello, who is one of the 23 aspirants
cleared to contest for the party, ‘s presidential ticket in the 2023 election,
said there is a conspiracy against him, accusing the APC northern governors and
some elite of gang-up.
Describing himself as a leading aspirant that
would win overwhelmingly if the process is transparent and credible, Bello said
the only thing that could make him not contest the presidential primary is only
if President Muhammadu Buhari tells him to step down.
Speaking to State House correspondents after
meeting behind closed doors with the President, Bello said that the APC will
retain power at the center if only it plays by the rules.
