APC presidential primaries: Atiku, Kwankwaso kick against Lagos venue FORMER Vice President, Atiku Abubakar and Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano State have kicked against the choice of venue for the APC presidential primaries, slated to hold on Dec 10. A document signed by both aspirants and obtained by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja, on Tuesday, stated that the relocation of the primaries was not convenient. “Our party has paid for the Eagle Square for December 7, 8, 10 and 11. “This will enable our party to maximally harvest the fallout of PDP National Assembly primaries, since we have nothing to harvest from the PDP presidential primaries, as they have only one candidate. “The proposed venue of Lagos is not convenient for all; we, therefore, advise that our party reverts to Abuja as the venue,” the document read. NAN gathered that there had been disagreements on the choice of venue between Abuja and Lagos and the party recently chose Benin City as a neutral ground for the presidential primaries.
