He had earlier said that he believed in internal party democracy, noting that a transparent party primary was preferable to any consensus arrangement.
“Whoever wins, we will all come together and work for the party and not somebody calling for consensus where someone will step down for another.
“Let’s go and have a competitive environment, it will be transparent and we will uphold internal democracy and be able to have proper democracy,” he had insisted.
