Barring all permutations, 2,340 delegates will decide the fate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential aspirants at Eagle Square, Abuja.
The delegates from all the 36 states including Federal Capital Territory in Nigeria are converging for the party’s national convention beginning from Monday, June 6-8.
Though APC Screening Committee had cleared 13, APC National Working Committee countered that 23 aspirants who bought nomination forms and expression of interest would slug out for the nation’s plum job.
