The All Progressives Congress, APC, has announced plans
to disqualify some governorship aspirants found guilty of
disrupting the Ekiti governorship primary.
The National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mallam Bolaji
Abdullahi, disclosed this on Monday while responding to
questions at the APC National Secretariat, in Abuja.
Abdullahi stated that the NWC would make public its final
decision on the aspirants on Tuesday.
He, however, declined to give the names of the aspirants
who stood the risk of disqualification.
He said, “We just received a report from the chairman of the
committee that we sent to Ekiti to conduct the governorship
primary, the governor of Nasarawa state, Governor Tanko Al-
Makura.
“He gave us a full report orally and submitted a written
report of what transpired in Ekiti. They also made specific
recommendations, which gave the NWC a couple of options
on how to proceed.
“The NWC is meeting tonight (Monday) to consider the
report and tomorrow morning, we will be able to make our
decision clear on how to proceed.”
Speaking specifically about the violence which marred the
exercise, he stated, “What I can assure you is that the
individuals that took part in disrupting the exercise in Ekiti
have been fully identified and we know the people they
represented at the event.
“If we find them to be culpable accordingly, the aspirants
they represent will be disqualified from the exercise and the
individuals that participated in disrupting the exercise will be
fully prosecuted.
“That is what I can tell you at the moment. But tonight
(Monday), we will meet to consider the report and we will
make our decision known and send the team back to Ekiti
as part of the way forward.”
