It was also gathered that APC may also beg governor Adams Oshiomhole because of his achievements in the state, his influence, popularity and acceptability by Nigerians to run for the presidency in the 2015 Presidential election.Kwankwaso was one of the governors who finally dumped the PDP yesterday for the APC.
