The David Olofu Campaign Council strongly condemns the alleged forceful snatching and diversion of electoral materials intended for the African Democratic Congress primaries in Apa/Agatu Federal Constituency.
According to reports received by the Campaign Council, armed individuals and thugs intercepted the vehicle conveying the party’s electoral materials and the Apa Local Government ADC Chairman, Hon. Sharon Adokpe.
The Chairman was pushed out of the moving vehicle, while the perpetrators fled with the materials to unknown destination.
The Campaign Council states unequivocally that no primary election took place in Apa/Agatu Federal Constituency under these circumstances.
Consequently, we call on the State and National leadership of the African Democratic Congress to reject any result purportedly arising from the disrupted process.
We further urge the Nigeria Police Force and other relevant security agencies to immediately investigate the incident, apprehend all individuals involved, and prevent the circulation or validation of any fraudulent result from the purported exercise.
The Campaign Council also demands the disqualification of any beneficiary of the said process and insists that all perpetrators be prosecuted to the full extent of the law to safeguard the integrity of the party’s internal democratic process.
The David Olofu Campaign Council remains committed to a free, fair, and transparent contest and will continue to pursue all lawful means to ensure justice is done.
Signed:
Dr Friday Adakole Elijah,
Secretary,
David Olofu Campaign Council
