floriana: Thank God for this. We in labour party fear only one aspirant named Saka Lawal. Now that he has been overlooked by ACN, We can go home and sleep while waiting for victory. Thank you Tinubu for this gift.

icez: who are the PDP and CPC candidates?

Some people has described today, the black Sunday for many governorship aspirants under the umbrella of Action Congress of Nigeria in the forthcoming election in Ondo state. Today, Asiwaju Bola tinubu and ACN chieftains will pick the candidate that will face incumbent governor; Olusegun Mimiko in the next governorship election. ACN has over 30 candidates jostling for the seat at Alagbaka.

What is your expectation. Lets discuss the prospect of ACN, Labour Party and PDP in the coming election.




AKURE – INDICATIONS emerged, yesterday, that the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, may have picked the former Nigerian Bar Association, President, Chief Rotimi Akeredolu, as its governorship candidate for the October 20 election in Ondo State.

This came as an in-law to the immediate past governor, Dr. Olusegun Agagu and former Okitipupa Local Government chairman, Mr. Segun Ayerin and hundreds of the party’s supporters have defected to the ruling Labour Party, LP.

Sources within ACN said the leaders of the party met in Lagos, yesterday, and finally picked Akeredolu as the party’s flagbearer.

Another source said the choice of Akeredolu has been communicated to other 30 aspirants jostling for the ticket.
It was learnt that the aspirants were from five shortlisted to three before the leaders finally agreed on Akeredolu.

The three shortlisted include Akeredolu, Segun Abraham and Saka Lawal while Dr. Olu Agunloye and Professor Ajayi Boroffice were dropped by the leaders.

Vanguard learnt that the choice of Akeredolu irked two of the aspirants, who immediately after leaving the meeting, initiated plans to join other political parties to contest for the governorship positions.

This,according to sources, was after their suggestion that instead of imposition of Akeredolu, a primary should be conducted for the most popular candidate to emerge, was rejected by the leaders. The leaders, it was gathered, insisted that the seat should be zoned to the Northern part of the state.

kokoA: This report is an insult to journalism IMHO. Thisday should tell us when and where justice salami was consulted by ACN. Not like I care about whoever the parties in Ondo pick as flagbearers but I completely frown at using the media as a tool to cause trouble. Please Ondo people, does PDP stand a chance in your state?

kasiem: trying to vindicate hypocrisy and idiocy, though, it's coming from a certified imbe.cile. Till today, we are yet to know the school tinubu attended.

OmoLisabi: Yellow journalism. Thisday stop lying. Justice Salami have no hand in this.

dayokanu: ACN has told anyone who cares to know that they do a SELECTION just like the British do

The prime Minister in the UK is SELECTED by the party leaders and they have been at it for centuries

And we are comfortable with their selection process, Its the selection that made them the darling of the SW

if the PDP election gives candidates like Akala, Obanikoro, Fayose, Omisore and Selection of ACN gives us Fashola, Ajimobi, Amosun, Fayemi, Oshiomole then we rather stick to the SELECTION of ACN

icez:




Are you trying to justify the selection process?

@topic.. I taught this zoning issue only exist in PDP, so ACN also choose their candidate by zone and not by the credibility of their candidates?
