PRESS RELEASE: OGUN APC NOW TO ADOPT INDIRECT PRIMARY WHERE CONSENSUS FAILS

The Ogun State Chapter of All Progressives Congress (APC) is now to adopt the indirect mode of primary election for all elective offices in the 2019 general elections where consensus fails.
This follows a fresh resolution passed today at the State Executive Committee meeting of the party at Mitros Hall, Ibara G.R.A., Abeokuta, Ogun State.
The meeting resolved that the APC in Ogun State shall “employ the consensus option in the first instance and where that fails, the indirect mode of primary” will be used to choose candidates for all elective positions in the 2019 general election.
The party, according to the release, took the decision “in view of the fact that a few days to the primary elections, the updated membership register of all members of the party in all wards across the state is yet to be made available by the National secretariat of our party, the Non-availability of membership cards, the concern that a significant proportion of our dedicated members stand the sure risk of being disenfranchised, the infiltration of our party by members of the opposition, unscrupulous elements and strange bed fellows, illegal registration exercise of party members and the absence other necessary parameters for the conduct of a free, fair and successful direct primary”.
These resolutions override the earlier resolution of the State Executive Committee passed on 5th September 2018.
