KOWA Party: Presidential aspirants will write exam before contesting in 2019 – National Secretary

This was disclosed by the party’s National Secretary, Mark Adebayo, while speaking at the party’s Lagos State congress at Light Chapel Event Centre, Ilupeju, Lagos, on Saturday, February 3, 2018.

He also revealed that gubernatorial aspirants contesting for tickets under the party will be subjected to the same assessment so as to produce the best candidates for important political positions in 2019.

He said, “There will be a written examination for presidential candidates of KOWA Party, and governorship candidates. At least for those two categories. We need a candidate who can sell the party profitably to Nigeria.”

According to Adebayo, the party is eager to choose its presidential flag bearer on August 18, 2018, the date the Independent National Electoral Commission .

While speaking, he confirmed that KOWA already has four aspirants, including Professor Remi Sonaiya, vying for its presidential ticket.

Prof Sonaiya, who was also at the congress, was the party’s flag bearer in the 2015 presidential election and will be expected to be the favourite to win the ticket again for 2019.

In 2015, she won 13,076 votes, 0.05% of the total votes cast, as incumbent, President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives’ Congress (APC) coasted to victory with 15,424,921 (53.96%) votes.

Lagos gets incomplete SEC

At the congress of the party’s Lagos division, six new members were elected to the State Executive Committee (SEC) to oversee its operations.

With 79 out of 489 registered delegates voting through the party’s electronic voting platform, Dr Fadahunsi Fajuyitan was elected as the party’s state chairman after serving as interim since 2016.

Other officers elected include: Dr Bimbo Oyedokun as Deputy Chairman; Emmanuel Ayomide-Baafog as Secretary; Emenyi Abang as Organising Secretary; Abhulimen Marvins as Public Relations Officer; and Chimezie Nwosu as Youth Caucus Leader.

The six new officers fill only half of 12 available positions on the SEC as there were no contestants for positions such as women leader and treasurer.

National Secretary, Adebayo, pointed out the absence of any female contestants which was in violation of the party’s constitution which demands that such a committee is made up of, at least, 35% of the female gender.

He advised the new chairman, Dr Fajuyitan, to conduct a supplementary election to rectify the situation.

Its not fair ooo

Because una sabi he no get certificate?

If APC adopt this method for its next presidential aspirant, I am 100℅ sure that PMB will pass by cheating and or hiring 20 SANs professors to write for him.....


The man will be remembered as the worst Head of state/President that has ever been elected and will be used on economic classes as an example of economic-crisis!

You people are wicked.
WHO WILL WRITE FOR BUHARi.

Meaning Buhari can never join Kowa party lai lai

una want finish bubu,were no want heer anything exam bc him no de fit pass.

I think is a welcome development that should be part of the constitution for presidential aspirants not just a party thing.

But am sure they will not like it but they know how to set job exams to unemploy youths for formalities and frustrate them and still not give them the jobs because at the end of the day they will hijack the vacant positions for their godsons and daughters.

Let's test their level of intelligence too.

Osunbade can write for him.


It's not impersonation but delegation to a deputy.

Jesus Christ of Nazarene, Buhari has finish,

If only it can be adopted in apc and pdp, but no it's only stealing and bribing that's in their brain, bunch of illiterates.

This is a welcome development

They should write Cbt exams nd should be interviewed afterwards

Same with Ministers too.

#patriots

Thats kool.

They should introduce Dragnet to conduct Aptitude test,
Human Capital Partners to conduct Assessment centre while Deloitte should screen votes.

But i trust Buhari people, them go still rig test results

If exam was the criteria, bubu wouldn't have been a ward chairman given the fact he had no WAEC certification.

kai! hmmmmmmmm dis is too much for dullardi ooo

We should stop voting according to party lines or ethnic affiliations but rather vote for candidates who can take us out of this global disgrace.

These old cargoes can jump ship at the eleventh hour when they find out what party is in vogue.
Two years ago, APC was the rave of the moment and all the known and unknown criminals defected from PDP. This is 3 years down the line and APC is still trying to know it's right from left.

What we need is someone who can take responsibility unlike the present crop of leaders whose only stock in trade is to pass blames. From the IGP's comment that the passage of Antigrazing bill in Benue led to the skirmishes between the farmers and herders, to FG still blaming GEJ's administration for the recession, we can safely assume that most politicians come to power unprepared.

I laugh

This life, I still don't know where is going

They should just give them CBT exam...I'm sure 95% of them will fail because they have analogue brain

Interesting. Debates are good enough IMO
