National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole said that his party will focus on character and integrity of candidates in its campaign messages for the 2019 elections.
Oshiomhole made this known on Friday after a closed-door meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa.
Speaking to State House correspondents, the former Edo State governor stated that the ruling party was fully ready.
He said: “There will be two sets of messages. One, on what we have done in the past, without failing to remind people of where we were before, what we are going to do in the next three years, and a couple of things we believe we will be doing differently.
“Why we are a better choice? President Buhari if compared to the rest of the aspirants, there is no basis to compare day and night. The real issue in this election is not going to be religion. It is not going to be about political party, central to the issue and given our past experience as a country, we know that what makes a difference is the character, the issue of integrity of the candidates.
“All those issues of character, especially looking at the past, the key candidates in the election are not strangers to governance, they are not even strangers to this villa, so we will be able to ask a couple of questions about what do they know now that they didn’t know then when they had power.
“This edition is going to be focusing on character, the integrity of those who want to govern us. In addition to what and how they will do things differently,”
