No aspirant has been adopted for Lagos State governor, All Progressives Congress (APC) elders said yesterday.
The Chairman of the Elders’ Forum, Alhaji Tajudeen Olusi, in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos, said the party would not have resolved to hold a primary if it had adopted an aspirant.
He was reacting to media reports that the chapter had adopted Mr Jide Sanwo-Olu, the Managing Director of the Lagos State Property Development Corporation (LSPDC), as its governorship candidate.
Said Olusi: “All these things are speculations. They are not true. How can we plan to hold a primary to elect our candidate and then adopt somebody?
“If we are still going to hold our primary, why then should we adopt, or does the adoption cancel the primary? No.
“This is the political season; many interesting things happen, but I can tell you most of the things that have been reported on the matter are mere speculations and not facts. Nobody has directed any adoption.”
Olusi, referring to a video being circulated, said it was normal for individuals or groups to back or endorse aspirants ahead of any election.
He, however, said such endorsements should not be taken to be the party’s position.
Olusi said the determination of who would become the party’s candidate would be taken at the primary.
He described the APC as a democratic party, saying all aspirants would be allowed a level-playing field.
On the feasibility of holding a direct primary in view of the large number of party members, Olusi said there was no cause for alarm.
He said the right preparations were being done, expressing optimism that everything would go well during the exercise.
Olusi would not comment on the controversies over different modes of primary in some APC state chapters.
“Honestly, I do not want to comment on that. However, we are a growing democracy and we learn every day,’’ he said.

One thing I want to discuss is that weightloss system fast can be carried out by the correct diet and exercise. Ones size not just affects appearance, but also the overall quality of life. Self-esteem, depressive disorder, health risks, as well as physical skills are impacted in extra weight. It is possible to make everything right but still gain. Should this happen, a condition may be the offender. While a lot food and not enough physical exercise are usually the culprit, common health concerns and traditionally used prescriptions can certainly greatly increase size. I am grateful for your post right here.
Thanks for giving your ideas right here. The other element is that each time a problem occurs with a computer motherboard, individuals should not consider the risk of repairing this themselves for if it is not done correctly it can lead to permanent damage to all the laptop. It is usually safe just to approach the dealer of the laptop with the repair of its motherboard. They’ve got technicians who have an know-how in dealing with laptop computer motherboard troubles and can have the right prognosis and carry out repairs.
