Ahead of the All Progressives Congress(APC) presidential primary scheduled for June 6 and 7, Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, has asked delegates to put monetary incentives aside and elect a presidential standard-bearer who does not have baggage.

In a letter addressed to APC delegates on Wednesday, Lawan said they should put the country first in their choices.

Lawan asked the delegates to vote for him so he could become the presidential candidate of the ruling party and deliver good governance if elected.

“I am reaching out to you, with humility, to ask for your votes so that I can emerge as the APC Presidential flag bearer for the 2023 Nigerian Presidential election.

“At this point, it is not lost on me that we must come together as one party and as one nation, for we have a great deal to mend, to rehabilitate, to reinstall and so much more to achieve.

“We have a unique chance to measure up to every expectation and show Nigeria and the world that Democracy triumphs. And that journey shall start during the APC Presidential Primary Election process.

“To all delegates across Nigeria, I beseech you to put pecuniary and monetary incentives aside and seriously consider what is ‘in the greater good.’ As you make your decision in picking the flag bearer of our party, I urge you to seek for a leader and not a politician

“I ask you to choose a person that will lead and not rule Nigerians; one that will be understanding, tolerant, fair, honest, and progressive. A leader that comes with absolutely ‘No-Baggage’,” he said.

The Senate President added that he is the leader that would deliver on the dreams of Nigerians.

“Dear delegates, look for a leader that will not buy your votes but one that is prepared to sell and deliver your dreams. I promise you that I will be that leader. I am prepared to offer you myself and my heart; my integrity, my dedication and my might.

“I want to offer you a dream of justice for all, a dream of uniting to fight the foes we face, a dream of unity under one single ideal, common purpose, common endeavor and resolve; a dream to right the wrongs of our past, a dream of work, employment, functioning safe schools, security, electricity, infrastructure, stable economy, compassion for citizenry, technology, opportunity and so much more that Nigerians desire,” he said.

Lawan promised to defend the country’s constitution and democracy if elected president.
