The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Abdullahi Adamu, has said none of the party’s presidential aspirant have been disqualified.

But speaking to reporters on Saturday at the APC National Secretariat in Abuja, Adamu suggested all 23 were still in contention regardless of the screening committee’s verdict.

“I want to say very clearly that no aspirant has been disqualified,” Adamu said. We have the report. It’s like sitting for an exam. And even if you pass, there is a grading; there is first class, second class upper, second class lower, and a pass.

“The President has invited all of them to dinner today.”
