The Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, has withdrawn from the race for the presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress.

Fayemi announced his decision during his speech at the ongoing convention of the party at Eagle Square, Abuja.

In his speech on Tuesday, the Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum said he was withdrawing for Tinubu because he is competent and can lead the country at this time.
