Former governor of Lagos state, Sen. Bola Tinubu, on Wednesday submitted his Nomination and Expression of Interest forms for the presidential primary election of the party slated for the end of May.

He submitted the forms to the party at the International Conference Centre, Abuja, the nation’s capital.

Tinubu, having conveniently secured the signatures of 370 statutory delegates, covering the 36 states of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory as required by the ruling party, was the first to submit the N100m presidential form among 28 aspirants on the platform of the APC.

Mega Icon Magazine recalled that APC had earlier mandated its presidential aspirants as a precondition for submitting their expression of interest and nomination forms, to secure the signatures of 10 statutory delegates from each state and the Federal Capital Territory.

The APC chieftain was represented by Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu; House of Representatives member from Ikeja Federal Constituency, James Faleke; a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal; former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Nuhu Ribadu, amongst others.
