Former Governor Ibikunle Amosun of Ogun, one of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential aspirants, has withdrawn from the party’s primary to throw his weight behind Bola Tinubu.
Mr Amosun announced his last-minute decision while addressing delegates at APC special national convention on Tuesday in Abuja.
He directed his supporters to vote for Mr Tinubu at the presidential primary.
Former Governor of Akwa Ibom, Godswill Akpabio, had earlier withdrawn from the race urging his supporters to vote for the national leader of the APC and former Lagos governor.
