Also, the Senior Special Assistant on Foreign Affairs and Diaspora to President Buhari debunked reports of the existence of a ‘unity list’ in the party ahead of the convention.

She said, “The meeting today is about getting set for the convention which is going ahead as scheduled and taking place at the Eagle Square in Abuja on Saturday.

“Screening has been done ; there are 20  positions that are unopposed. So, there are 42 positions to be contested.

“Some people were disqualified, for example if you are 40 years and going for national youth leader, you know you will be disqualified or you don’t have the requisite educational qualification.

” The bottom line is that this convention is going ahead. And we are not aware of the existence of a unity list. This is not true, there is no unity list.

“But of course, consensus is allowed, affirmation is allowed. Some people are running unopposed. There’s no such list as Unity list, if you see any list it is a fake list

“The election will be held where and it will be free, fair and credible.”
