The News Agency of Nigeria reports that there was mild drama prior to collation of results when a supporter of the winner of the primaries announced himself as the agent of Miss Phillips.However, Miss Phillips, who was among the only two contestants present during the exercise, flared up and shouted: “No! You cannot be my agent. I have my agent here”.In an interview with NAN, she described the process as not free, fair and credible.

Fielding northern candidates’ll have consequences, Clark, Adebanjo, Obiozor warn APC, PDPLeaders of the Southern and Middle Belt Forum have again warned the ruling All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party that fielding northerners as presidential candidates would have ‘grim consequences on national concord and harmony’. The greatest singular undoing of PDP is to field another Northern Muslim as its Presidential candidate for 2023 Presidential election. Same with APC. No Southern Christian Presidential candidate for PDP, no Aso Rock Villa for PDP period. They are obviously not listening. It is a selfish idea to present any northern candidate for the presidency this time around. This country doesn't belong only to the northerners. APC should not make any mistakes.
