All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Edo State, Senator Monday Okpebholo is in hot soup.
Some APC members have stormed the party national secretariat in Abuja saying that his election unlawful and a gross violation of the party’s constitution.
The protestants leader, Innocent Ogedengbe said:
“The said primaries of 17th and 22nd February 2024 were not conducted by open secret ballot by APC as required by relevant provisions of APC constitution and the declaration of Senator Monday Okpebholo is not only unlawful but a gross violation of the APC constitution.”
“Our strong prayer is that the injustice perpetrated by the Governor Bassey Otu committee be set aside by the party and Hon. Dennis Idahosa will be rightfully declared winner on the strength of available extant documentary evidence.”
