Dr Felix had during an interview on TVC News at 7pm, commended the lawmakers for coming out strong on the issues of direct primaries as mode electing party candidates. However, he condemned president Buhari's refusal to sign the bill, describing it as an "undemocratic act." In his words, " Let me start by commending the lawmakers for this giant stride. Initially, there was this confusion between direct and indirect mode of primaries, but the lawmakers came out strong and clear. They voted for direct primaries. That's commendable. "It is however unfortunate that the president refused to sign this document because he is not democratic. If he is a democrat, he would have signed the bill," Dr Felix said. Speaking on whether the lawmakers can override the President, Dr Felix said he is confident the lawmakers will override the President on this matter because that is what Nigerians want. The presidential hopeful categorically stated that the president failed to sign the bill because of the electronic transmission and verification of result.
