What a party. What manner of democracy. Where do people select rather than elect leaders but in ACN? PDP is the devil but ACN is the father of the devil.

POLICEMEN yesterday stood guard over the Secretariat of the ruling Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) along Abiola Way, Abeokuta, following a hint that some aggrieved members of the party planned to seize it on grounds of alleged imposition of candidates by Governor Ibikunle Amosun in the forthcoming local council polls.

On Tuesday, some aggrieved party faithful protested at the GRA, Abeokuta home of the ACN Leader in the state, Olusegun Osoba, where they called on Osoba to intervene in the matter.

The protesters wanted to continue the action yesterday at the party’s secretariat but armed policemen took over the secretariat before they arrived there.

Nonetheless, the protesters who kept some distance away from the armed policemen vent their anger through songs and the anti-Amosun placards they wielded.

State Chairman, ACN, Tajudeen Bello had earlier at a stakeholders meeting said the candidates were selected following a rigorous exercise conducted by a consultant who went round the 20 local councils in the state.
