The All Progressives Congress has denied disqualifying 10 presidential aspirants. Making the clarification on Saturday at the party’s secretariat in Abuja, the National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu, only identified strong and weak candidates.
While dousing the tension that was created following the submission of the screening report by the John Odigie-Oyegun-led committee , Adamu disclosed that the 13 aspirants being touted as the successful candidates were only recommended as first-class materials.
“I want to say very clearly that no aspirant has been disqualified. It’s like sitting in an exam. Even if you pass there is grading from first-class to ordinary pass.
“So, no aspirant was disqualified. Incidentally, the president has invited all of them to a dinner today,” he said
The screening report of the John Odigie-Oyegun-led committee had caused panic in the camps of the 23 aspirants.
