Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, has assured that he would work towards ensuring that the All Progressives Congress, APC, wins the 2023 presidential election.<\/p>\n

Lawan made the assurance while commending President Muhammadu Buhari over the just concluded All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential primary election.<\/p>\n

Lawan, who was a presidential aspirant, applauded Buhari for the smooth conduct of the exercise.<\/p>\n

In a statement by his Media Aide, Ola Awoniyi, Lawan said the President ensured that a level playing field was provided for the contestants.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thank President Muhammadu Buhari for providing exemplary leadership in the conduct of our presidential primary.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe President truly demonstrated his leadership role by providing a level playing field for all the contestants.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thank all the delegates who voted for me for their support and all my supporters all over the country for their solidarity. I remain indebted to all of them. I have not and will never take their show of love for granted.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust as I have indicated earlier shortly after the primary, with the successful conclusion of the exercise, we should all channel our energy to ensuring the success of our great party at the 2023 polls.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am confident that once we forge a common front against our opponents, victory will be ours,\u201d Lawan said.<\/p>\n

The APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu, had suggested Lawan as the party\u2019s consensus candidate prior to the primary election.<\/p>\n

Northern governors in the party rejected Adamu\u2019s choice of Lawan.<\/p>\n

However, former Lagos State Governor, Bola Tinubu defeated Lawan and other aspirants to emerge as the party\u2019s flag bearer.<\/p>\n
