Bakare obtained the N100 million presidential Expression of Interest and Nomination forms at the All Progressives Congress headquarters in Abuja.

According to a statement released on Thursday, Bakare would officially declare his presidential ambition on Monday, May 9, 2022.

He will hold a declaration ceremony at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Central Business District in Abuja.
