The primaries were initially scheduled for Friday but were later postponed to Saturday by the party. Ahead of the exercise, President Bola Tinubu cautioned party members against infighting and “do-or-die” politics, urging aspirants, delegates and party leaders to conduct themselves peacefully while upholding the principles of internal democracy, fairness and sportsmanship. In Katsina State, Yusuf Muhammadu Buhari, son of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari, defeated Auwal Lawal Musa, son of former Director-General of the Department of State Services (DSS), Lawal Musa Daura, to secure the APC ticket for the Daura Federal Constituency.
