Ekiti APC Primary Under Fire: Lawmaker Cites Electoral Act Violation
Lawmaker Kolawole Akinlayo challenges the APC’s Ekiti North Federal Constituency II primary result. He alleges the winner, Kunle Ibrahim, was a political appointee during the contest, violating the Electoral Act Section 88(1). Akinlayo urges strict adherence to the law, citing a Supreme Court judgment that mandates appointees resign before primaries. The dispute tests APC’s internal conflict resolution ahead of the 2027 elections.
