The Peoples Democratic Party and the All
Progressives Congress have begun what can be described as the last
battle to woo former President Olusegun Obasanjo ahead of the
presidential primaries.
Investigations correspondents on
Sunday showed that separate meetings the former president held with
Senate President, David Mark, and an APC leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu,
marked the beginning of the last attempt to get Obasanjo’s support ahead
of party primaries.
Although the PDP has endorsed President
Goodluck Jonathan as its sole presidential candidate, it presidential
primary would hold on December 6, 2014
On its part, the APC will choose between
former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar and an ex-Head of State, Maj.-Gen.
Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) at its national convention on December 2, 2014.
According to the Independent National Electoral Commission, party primaries will hold between October 2 and December 11, 2014.
