Yakubu Ibrahim added that he has now instituted a court action against his humiliation with the State Party Chairman, Uba Ahmed Nana, and the Deputy Governor, Audu Sule Katagum, as defendants as he was assaulted in their presence. “We are not against Mohammed Abubakar but we don’t want anybody to impose a candidate on us in the State. Let the governorship candidate be produced through the primary election. Why are they afraid of conducting a primary election,” he decried. It would be recalled that APC stakeholders had met on Thursday at a special meeting where they took a decision to endorse President Muhammadu Buhari and Governor Mohammed Abdullahi Abubakar as their presidential and gubernatorial candidates respectively for the 2019 general elections.
