Politics › Adamawa APC Ward Congres Postponed After Protests From Babachir Lawal by engineerboat(op): 9:57am On May 05, 2018
The Adamawa state chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has postponed its ward congress by 24 hours.

This follows protests by stakeholders including former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Nuhu Ribadu and ex-Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Babachir Lawal.


Chairman of the congress committee, Musa Mahmud, confirmed the postponement after a meeting with some party chieftains.

They protested that many candidates were yet to obtain the nomination forms to contest the election.

A serving Senator, Abdulaziz Nyako; Abubakar MoAllayidi and Marcus Gundiri, also supported the shifting of congress.

Mahmud said the congress had been postponed to 1pm on Sunday.


The local government congress will hold next week and states in two weeks time but no date has been fixed for the convention yet.

Ekiti 2018: Two ex-governors, three ex-senators, others battle for APC ticket.


Two former governors and three former senators are among 33 governorship aspirants who will be testing their popularity at Saturday’s primaries of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Ekiti State.


The journey so far has been rancorous and tension-soaked with the entrance into the fray of bigwigs in the party, such as former governor Segun Oni, who is also the party’s South-west Deputy National Chairman. He started his campaign early and has been consistent.

Mr Oni however has another former governor to contend with: Minister of Mines and Steel Development, Kayode Fayemi.

Although Mr Fayemi was a late starter in the bid for the ticket, his coming has altered the power balance and greatly tilted the advantage far away from earlier favourites.

Babafemi Ojudu, the Political Adviser to the President, is no less popular and has shown himself a crowd puller in the build up to the primaries.

A former senator and veteran journalist, Mr Ojudu has appealed to over 2000 delegates that he had what it takes to send the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) government out of power.

Ayo Arise is a former PDP senator, who now enjoys the cover of the APC. His ambition to be governor was nearly thwarted by his kidnap late last year. His chances on Saturday cannot be wished away.


Another aspirant, Gbenga Aluko, is a former member of the Senate. Twice, he had attempted to be governor of the state, but did not succeed. He was the Labour Party candidate in 2007 and in 2014, and also aspired on the platform of the PDP. His sojourn in the APC is bringing him close to the governorship race for the third time.

Other prominent contenders for the APC ticket include a former member of the House of Representatives and ex-Commissioner for Information and Strategy in Lagos State, Michael Opeyemi Bamidele; a former member of the House of Representatives, Bamidele Faparusi; a former Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Femi Bamisile and a former Commissioner for Information, Afunminiyi Afuye.


Others include: Wole Oluyede, Bimbo Daramola, Wole Oluleye, Adebayo Orire, Kola Alabi, Kayode Ojo, Muyiwa Olumilua, Victor Kolade, Debo Ajayi, Dele Okeya, Diran Adesua, Sesan Fatoba, Mojisola Yaya-Kolade, Olumuyiwa Coker and Adekunle Esan.


There are others like, Dipo Ogunkoyode. Bodunde Adeyanju, Sunday Adebomi, Bisi Aloba, Otunba Yinka Akerele, Charles Dahunsi, Ajayi Olowo, Tosin Olofinluyi and Taye Matesun.

As confirmed by the party, 33 aspirants have filled and returned the expression of interest forms making them eligible to contest. The party had earlier received letters of intent from 37 aspirants.


The large number of aspirants has been a source of worry to many political observers, but party spokesman in the state, Taiwo Olatumbosun allays fears saying that the number of aspirants ”underpinned the credibility of the APC platform and only fairness and transparency will see the party through the test now before it”.

Perhaps, the Ondo experience sounds a clear warning for the party. Over 23 aspirants sought the APC ticket for the Ondo State November 2016 election.

The outcome caused division in the party since the winner, Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, came into office. A legal battle resulting from the primaries held in September 2016 is yet to be rested, following allegations that the delegates’ list was doctored in favour of the winner.


Mr Ojudu, during his declaration of interest in Ado Ekiti, warned his party not to toe the line of the Ondo primaries.

He called for a “level playing field” for all aspirants, saying it was the only way the party could avoid crisis.

Mr Fayemi’s entrance particularly created some furore, as other aspirants expressed displeasure that he was ”already comfortable and needed not upset the applecart”.

There were also contentions and bitter attacks leading up to the primaries. The party issued new rules and threats before calm settled on the battlefield.


The APC national leadership has however, assured that only the popularly nominated candidate would emerge victorious at the election which holds at the Oluyemi Kayode stadium, Ado Ekiti.

Meanwhile, the National Chairman of the party, John Odigie-Oyegun, while interacting with the aspirants and others allayed fears that the Ondo experience would reoccur on Saturday.

PREMIUM TIMES can report that the delegates have become the ‘darlings’ of all the aspirants and are being wooed for their votes. This is in spite of several warnings against monetising the election.

It is however not clear if the delegates and aspirants heeded the warning of the state party Chairman, Jide Awe, that they (delegates) might end up putting whoever eventually emerged as the party’s candidate in the bad light, given the desperate manner they (aspirants) have been going about seeking the ticket.


Outgoing Ekiti State Commissioner of Police, Abdullahi Chafe, has also given an antidote to avoid crisis.

He advised that the Governor Tanko Al-Makura-led primaries committee should get all the aspirants to agree on the list of delegates before going for the election.

While the idea by Mr Chafe may appeal to wisdom, the desperate political drives of aspirants may be a problem in achieving crises-free primaries. It is the duty of the party to provide the right environment and a transparent that will produce the candidate.

This measure however is not a magic wand for producing a sellable candidate. Only the delegates can determine a candidate that can stand the roaring forces of incumbent governor, Ayo Fayose and his anointed candidate, olusola Eleka

Politics › PDP: Inec’s Admission Of Underage Voters Vindicates Us by engineerboat(op): 4:23pm On May 03, 2018
…Queries INEC’s Registration Of APC Agents As Observers in Ekiti, Osun

The admission by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of existence of underage voters in its voter register has vindicated the position of the PDP and clearly shows that we have not been crying wolf where there was none.

While we acknowledge the development, we reject moves by the indicted commission to unilaterally clean up the discredited register and eliminate the minors without involving all stakeholders including political parties in the process.

This is principally because we have already been made aware that INEC, under Prof. Mahmood Yakubu has been instructed by the Presidency and the All Progressives Congress (APC) to retain the underage voters, particularly in Katsina, Kano states and other porous states where they plot to use them to rig election for President Muhammadu Buhari.

That INEC has been compromised by the APC clearly demonstrated in their earlier spirited denials of existence of underage voters in the register.

Nigerians are aware that INEC only admitted the illegality following preponderance of incontestable documentary evidences exposed by the PDP.

Furthermore, we are already aware of other illegalities being perpetrated in INEC by the APC to manipulate the electoral process not only for the 2019 general election but also the forthcoming governorship elections in Osun and Ekiti States.

We are aware that a blood relation of President Buhari, who has been made in charge of very sensitive department in INEC, has been perfecting all manner of rigging plans, including the exposed plans to create illegal 30,000 polling units in porous areas to be used to allocate votes for President Buhari.

We are also aware of underhand registration of APC agents as election observers, as well as the manipulation of INEC voters’ and constituency data to favour the APC.

The PDP charges Prof. Yakubu to explain to Nigerians why his commission secretly registered over 4,000 APC agents as observers for the Ekiti and Osun governorship elections.

INEC should explain why it registered observers without the knowledge of other stakeholders, particularly the major political parties contesting in the elections.

It is clear that the sneaky activities of the commission and the APC are all aimed at institutionalizing their planned rigging of the governorship elections but we want to assure that such will be firmly resisted at all level of the electoral process.

We therefore demand the immediate cancellation of the registration of observers for the Ekiti and Osun state governorship elections and demand the conduct of a fresh registration that involves all stakeholders if indeed they want Nigerians to have faith in their processes.

Prof. Yakubu must understand that Nigerians are taking note of the erosion of the independence and public confidence in INEC under his watch and are not ready to accept any process or results that do not reflect the democratic will of the people in any election at any level across the country.

Kola Ologbondiyan
