Adamu made the announcement at the meeting of National Working Committee (NWC) on Monday in Abuja.
Adamu told the National Working Committee that he arrived at the choice of Lawan after consultation with President Buhari.
However, the NWC members kicked against the decision, insisting that other aspirants must be given a level playing ground to compete.
