Breaking: Oby Ezekwesili’s Party Endorses Buhari For A Second Term

Hours after Presidential candidate, Oby Ezekwesili dropped out of the presidential race, her political party Allied Congress Party of Nigeria (ACPN) have reacted to the news through their national chairman, Gani Galadinma, who spoke to newsman this morning saying; “The reason for calling this press conference is to let the world know about the presidential aspiration of Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, which in actual fact, is not the truth. I have been put into confidence by one of her aide named Iyinoluwa Aboyeji that she only wanted to use the platform of the ACPN to negotiate to be Nigeria’s finance minister. If you observe, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili is the only presidential candidate who was so militant in her campaign without any tangible thing on ground to indicate any seriousness in the prosecution of her campaign. No campaign secretariat, billboard or great commitment on ground to indicate any seriousness. It is on this ground that the ACPN is withdrawing support for her presidential aspiration and endorsing the second term bid of President Muhammadu Buhari to take Nigeria to the next level.” Photo Credit: Getty
