BREAKING: #APC Breaks Silence On Zoning 2023 Presidential Ticket To North East

BREAKING: #APC Breaks Silence On Zoning 2023 Presidential Ticket To North East—-TGM reports that The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has said that there is no truth in the assertion it had zoned its presidential ticket to any part of the country.

Some media reports had claimed that the leadership of the APC is working towards zoning its presidential ticket to the North-east, with the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan likely to emerge as its presidential candidate in the 2023 elections.

Asked if the APC has zoned the presidential ticket, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Barrister Felix Morka, said:

“There is no basis and there is no reason why the APC should zone its presidency to the North. Nigeria comprises six geopolitical zones, and two major blocks will not accept whatever argument anybody is going to bring. I think it’s an afterthought. It is selfish, it is wicked, and it will not go well for Nigeria and Nigerians.”

According to the reviewed timetable released by Morka on Wednesday, the APC will now hold its special convention to elect its presidential candidate on May 29 and 30.

All political parties have June 3 as the deadline for the conduct of their primaries according to the guidelines of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
