Governors chosen under the banner of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have further streamlined the list of prospective presidential contenders to three at the ongoing National Convention in Abuja.
NAIJATAB NEWS had earlier revealed that APC governors presented a five-member roster of contenders from the southern region to President Muhammadu Buhari for assessment.
The candidates initially proposed were Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu; Vice President Yemi Osinbajo; Rotimi Amaechi; Governor Kayode Fayemi and Governor Dave Umahi.
As reported by The Nation, the governors have now seemingly narrowed the list to three candidates, with Tinubu, Osinbajo, and Amaechi remaining in the suggested lineup.
The recommendation to President Buhari is not a compulsory decision but rather an advisory for Buhari, who has requested their assistance in paring down the 23 candidates for consensus.
Other aspirants, particularly Kayode Fayemi and Yahaya Bello, have voiced dissent against the proposal, insisting that they continue to participate in the race.
