Former governor Abdulazeez Yari and five other chairmanship aspirants have reportedly stepped down for President Muhammadu Buhari’s candidate, Senator Abdullahi Adamu.

Indeed, the six former candidates have backed the candidate of the President Buhari as their consensus candidate.

This was contained in a letter sent to the Chairman of the APC Election Sub-Committee on Friday, signed by Senator George Akume, who was also among those vying for the position, the PUNCH reported.
