Asked if he has a favourite among those eyeing the presidency within his party in 2023, Buhari said he would rather keep the name of the person to himself, saying he may be eliminated before 2023.
When pressed further on if he has a favourite candidate in his party (APC), the president said “No, I wouldn’t because he may be eliminated if I mentioned, I’d better keep it secret.”
