The primary election took place on Saturday at the APC secretariat in the ward, which is the home ward of Deputy Senate President Barau Jibrin.
According to the party’s returning officer, Umar Mohammadu Rabiu, Tinubu defeated his only challenger, Osifo Osayamen Stanley, who scored zero votes in the exercise.
