Abiodun lauds orderly conduct of APC primary election in Ogun

Members of the All Progressives Congress in Ward 3, Ikenne Local Government Area, on Saturday participated in the primary election to choose the party’s candidate for the House of Representatives election scheduled for early next year.

Speaking after participating in the exercise, Dapo Abiodun lauded the peaceful conduct of the primary, describing it as a reflection of the party’s orderly and well-organised structure.

According to him, although there were minor logistical hitches, the overall conduct of the exercise was commendable as officials rose to the occasion.

“We are here for the Sagamu, Ikenne and Remo North Federal Constituency primary election. I arrived here about 15 to 20 minutes ago and met party faithful already gathered to exercise their franchise.

“The exercise started a bit late because some logistics arrived behind schedule, but I must commend the party members for their patience. Everything has been calm, peaceful and orderly. There has been no violence or rancour.

“Everything went smoothly as members of the ward queued peacefully behind the aspirant of their choice, who is Hon. Mrs. Funmilayo Efuwape.

“The Returning Officer first carried out accreditation by checking our party membership cards before voting commenced through the queue system behind the candidate’s poster,” the governor stated.

Governor Abiodun further noted that despite the harsh weather conditions, party members remained committed and exercised their franchise, a development he said demonstrated their loyalty, reliability and dedication to the party.
