One of the governorship aspirants of the All Progressives Congress in Ondo State, Olusola Oke, has condemned the emergence of Chief Rotimi Akeredolu as the party’s candidate for the governorship election.
Akeredolu won the primary of the party held on Saturday, defeating all the 23 other aspirants of the party.
In a statement issued by his Director-General of his campaign, Bola Fisayo, on Sunday, Oke said the election was not a true reflection of the delegates that participated in the primary on Saturday.
Oke, who was the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2012 governorship election, alleged that the names of some of the delegates were removed from the delegates’ list while non-delegates were allowed to vote in the election.
He explained that the list of delegates handed over to the aspirants at a meeting with the Presidency was different from the list of delegates brought by the Chairman of the Election Committee and Jigawa State Governor, Alhaji Mohammed Abubakar.
