#ElectionBuzzNig’23

Nasarawa State All Progressive Congress has rejected the delegates list for the the conduct of State and National Assembly members primaries.

State Chairman of the party John Mamman stated this during a press briefing in Lafia, the state capital.

He said the party in the State discovered that the authentic list of the delegates was doctored in some local government areas of the state.

“The party in Nasarawa State is saddened by the discovery that the official and authentic list of the delegates sent to the National Secretariat for the party’s primaries has been completely changed or doctored in a number of local government areas of the State”.

He explained that the party is saddened that the National Secretariat has truncated the conduct of the primaries by directing the Congress Committee to stop the process midway.

Considering the alleged tampering with the delegates list as undemocratic and capable of breeding disaffection, tension and disunity in the party, the APC Chairman said the doctoring of the authentic list of the delegates will not be tolerated by the party.

He said the emergence of Abdullahi Adamu as National Chairman was a development that was greeted with popular acclamation because of his experience and desirous of enduring democracy, the APC Chairman called on the National Secretariat in the interest of peace, unity, harmony and progress of the party to ensure that the wishes of the law abiding and loyal members of the party are respected.

John Mamman further appealed to aspirants and members of the party to remain calm as measures have been taken towards addressing the matter.
