A former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has criticised the All Progressives Congress (APC) Northern Governors for ‘challenging the authority of the party Chairman, Adamu Abdullahi’.
The APC Northern Governors had on Monday night rejected the choice of Senate President Ahmed Lawan as the consensus presidential candidate of the ruling party.
They also disowned the Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello for opposing their position that power should go to the south.
In a Tweet on Tuesday, Fani-Kayode said the Northern governors should have respected the supremacy of the party.

He said, “It is NOT for the Northern Governors to singlehandedly ZONE or DETERMINE the Presidential candidate of our party. It is for the President, the Nat. Chairman, the NWC & the delegates to decide. A challenge to the authority of the Chairman and supremacy of the party is unacceptable.”
Meanwhile, accreditation of delegates for the APC’s Special Convention and presidential primary is ongoing at the International Conference Centre (ICC), Abuja as some delegates have also reportedly faulted the delegates’ lists of the governors.
