The All Progressives Congress’ presidential screening committee has disqualified 10 aspirants from its primaries scheduled for next week.
The Chairman of the APC presidential screening committee, John Odigie-Oyegun, made this known on Friday.
Odigie-Oyegun spoke while submitting his committee’s report to the APC National Chairman, Abduallahi Adamu, in Abuja.
According to Mr Oyegun, only 13 out of the 23 aspirants screened were cleared by the committee.
However when asked about the identity of the disqualified aspirants, Mr Oyegun declined to disclose the names.
Mr Oyegun added that contrary to rumours making the rounds, it didn’t screen former president Goodluck Jonathan.
Cleared aspirants are expected to contest the presidential primary at a scheduled special convention in Abuja between June 6 and 8.
