President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday, picked his expression of interest and nomination form, to contest in the forthcoming primary election of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
The form, sold for N45million, was purchased on his behalf by one of his support groups, the Nigerian Consolidation Ambassadors Network.
This was confirmed by Buhari’s Special Assistant on New Media, Bashir Ahmaad, via his Twitter handle.
