Sani Musa, the senator representing Niger East senatorial district, says Senate President Ahmad Lawan will make a good president if elected or affirmed through consensus at Tuesday’s APC’s Presidential Primaries scheduled for Eagle Square in Abuja.

In a statement signed by Nasiru Abdullahi, spokesman for the Ahmad Lawan Campaign Organisation said.

“Senator Ahmad Lawan comes from a zone that has not produced a president of Nigeria since 1966. He is blessed with good education up to a PhD. A very humble and loyal person, he has no scandals or controversies around him. Also, he has served as a lawmaker in the House of Representatives and Senate for 23 years since 1999. That is a lot of experience,” the statement quoted Mr Musa to have said.

The senator appealed to other APC aspirants to eschew bitterness, ”even if they lose the (presidential primary) election.”

He asked for “loyalty to the party by accepting the outcome of the primaries as the will of God and forge forward together towards the general elections as a united family.”

Mr Musa also mentioned that APC should ensure “inclusiveness in the electoral process by not insisting on zoning or excluding any qualified party member from contesting at the primaries.”
