It is important to mention that that the narratives suggesting that a valid primary election was conducted across the wards of Okitipupa/Irele Federal Constituency for the purpose of selecting a candidate for the House of Representatives is a sham.
We wish to state categorically and unequivocally that no primary election took place in any ward of Okitipupa/Irele Federal Constituency of Ondo State.
Reports reaching us from party members, stakeholders, delegates, and ward leaders across the constituency clearly indicate that no electoral materials, no accreditation and accredited officials, no certified true copy of registered members of APC, and due electoral processes were totally absent.
Party faithful waited endlessly without any conduct of election whatsoever.
This development raises serious concerns regarding transparency, fairness, inclusiveness, and compliance with the democratic principles and guidelines of our great party, the APC.
As loyal party members and committed progressives, we strongly believe that the integrity of the primary process must not be compromised. The voices and participation of aspirants and party members across the wards must be respected and protected.
We therefore call on the appropriate authorities of the party to urgently look into these irregularities and ensure that justice, fairness, and due process prevail in the interest of democracy, party unity, and the collective integrity of our party in Okitipupa/Irele Federal Constituency.
Our commitment to the ideals of the APC and to the good people of the constituency remains unwavering.
Signed:
Barr. Wale Omoniyi Ayadi
APC Aspirant,
Okitipupa/Irele Federal Constituency, Ondo State.
