The PACT - Presidential Aspirants Coming Together had 13 Aspirants at their Opening today. They did inform the Media & audience in the hall, ahead of their voting process, that Sowore and 4 other Aspirants had moved on at different time since they launched their initiative.

Those 13 that were there today including @MoghaluKingsley and @feladurotoye made LOFTY STATEMENTS of their collective vision to go together& vote AMONG THEMSELVES, one Consensus Candidate. Before they signed their MOU, -2 - @OfficialAhmedB & Aliyu quietly walked away leaving 11.

The 11 then finalized their MOU & SIGNED, BEFORE VOTING among themselves:
Kingsley Moghalu
Thomas-Wilson Ikubese
Fela Durotoye;
Sina Fagbenro-Byron;
Mathias Tsado;
Ayodele Favor Oluwamuyiwa
Victor Ani-Laju;
Godstime Sidney Iroabuchi;
Clement Jimbo;
Elishama Ideh;
Felix Nicholas .

The 11 Presidential Aspirants in the first stage of the Process, Voted for any ONE of their 10 co-Aspirants.
2 voted for @MoghaluKingsley
2 voted for @feladurotoye
2 voted for Mathias Baba Tsado.
1 for Ideh
1 for Iroabuchi
1 for Ikubese
1 for Favor Olumuyiwa
1 for Fagbemi.

Thus consistent with the Process they agreed among themselves, @MoghaluKingsley 2 votes, @feladurotoye 2 votes & Tsado 2 votes qualified as the 3 top contenders for the second stage voting. They agreed that the 3 aspirants would recuse themselves for their 8 co-aspirants to Vote.

The 8 co-aspirants became 7 when Nicholas Felix quietly left but it did not stop the 3 top candidates - @MoghaluKingsley @feladurotoye & Tsado from continuing with the Process. So, their 7 remaining Co-Aspirants voted:
Durotoye 4 Moghalu 3 & Tsado 0.
They all rose & hugged. ✍🏾

After their claps and hugs, the now 10 Co-Aspirants of Presidential Aspirants Coming Together - PACT - left for the next floor of venue to brief the media and their guests on the OUTCOME of the Votes they cast among themselves. Only 9 ended up at that Briefing. Moghalu had left.

I was called on to present the Outcome of the Presidential Aspirants’ Voting Process that they had invited me as a “Supporter of Democratic System in Nigeria” to OBSERVE. I did and left.

I subsequently saw the tweets on their PACT from @MoghaluKingsley and wondered.

As a group of new-type Presidential Aspirants who started and drove their own initiative -PACT-; agreed & signed their MOU and followed through their Process with Participation by those that Voted yesterday; I hope they can all get back together and discuss their disagreements.

I have no iota of doubt that Citizens have a STRONG HUNGER for an Alternative Political Leadership Class in our country to emerge at all levels of Elective Offices.

For all those who believe they are part of that Alternative Leadership Class, Citizens shall be observing.

Guided by our @RedCardMng and @SOTANigeria #CitizensLeadershipRecruitmentTool
the composite of :
CHARACTER , Competence & Capacity, shall be the #GameChangers #DisruptiveFactor in the 2019 elections.

*Correction* Dare FAGBEMI and NOT Adesina FAGBENRO-Byron is the right name of one of the 11 Presidential Aspirants that were at their PACT event that I monitored yearerday, please. It was my mistake.

Apologies to Mr Fagbenro- Byron.
