He, therefore, urged the winner to walk the talk of his victory speech at the convention that he holds no bitterness against those who did not support him in the primaries.
He said:
"These consultations must be deepened and the policy frame work and engagement of the APC standard bearer must be broad having the capacity to cut through all the divides in the country.
''Certainly the coalition that will produce victory at the general election is different from the one that gave victory at the primaries."
"In the last forty eight hours, the APC presidential candidate has visited President Buhari, the party chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, and fellow contestants like Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi, and Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi state among others."
