Zamfara: APC faults INEC’s declaration

The All Progressives Congress has faulted the Independent National Electoral Commission’s declaration that the party cannot present candidates for the Governorship and National Assembly elections in Zamfara State, on the basis that primary elections were not held.

National Chairman of APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, in a letter to INEC, said the electoral body acted in error by basing its decision to bar the APC from presenting candidates on a false premise.

He said contrary to INEC claims, primaries were held in the state and candidates emerged.

The APC insisted that it would present candidates for the 2019 governorship and national assembly elections and it would do so before the expiration of the INEC date for the submission of names of candidates.
