Some leaders and members of the All Progressive Congress in the North-West on Thursday demanded the party’s vice presidential candidate’s slot, IgbereTV reports
The leaders made the demand in a communique issued at the end of their meeting in Abuja and signed by the APC National Vice-Chairman, North-West, Dr. Salihu Lukman.
The meeting was attended by governors, governorship candidates, and ministers from states in the region.
Their request was premised on the zone’s voting strength.
The stakeholders declared that the North-West produced more votes for the ruling party in the 2015 and 2019 general elections.
The APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, is still shopping for a quality running mate ahead of the 2023 elections.
A Katsina-based politician, Kabiru Masari, was picked as the party’s vice presidential candidate, albeit, in a placeholder capacity on June 17.
