At least 14 aspirants will vie for the PDP presidential ticket in the primary after one of them, Peter Obi, pulled out of the race and quit the party.

“We are prepared for the exercise; virtually all our delegates have arrived Abuja.

“The PDP has an array of eminently qualified persons to rule Nigeria. We carried out due diligence during our screening. I am confident that whoever emerges from the convention will reflect the wishes of our party.”
