Buhari loses primary election in his home town

A total of 47 aspirants under the APC have unanimously kicked against the adoption of indirect primaries by the party in Katsina State in electing the party’s candidates for the 2019 general elections.

This is contained in a communique signed by one Alhaji Abubakar Samaila, on behalf of the aspirants, and made available to reporters on Saturday in Katsina.
47 aspirants opposed the use of indirect primaries in the state in electing the party flag bearers for various positions during the elections.

Direct primaries remained the most transparent and credible process of electing popular candidates for the party
“We are not part of those who adopted indirect primaries in the state, we have unanimously rejected any process other than direct primaries in electing those that will represent the party in 2019 elections,” he said.
