At the PDP’s grand finale rally in Adamawa State, the parties announced their choices.

Speaking on behalf of the other national chairmen of the political parties, Yusuf Dantele, National Chairman of the APM, said that the parties chose the PDP presidential torch bearer because he is the best candidate for the position.

Yet he asserted that the parties would run candidates in the contests for the national, state, and local assemblies.
