The All Progressives Congress (APC) has promised the 16 candidates vying for its ticket in the upcoming Ondo state governorship election on November 16, 2024 that a fair, open, and transparent primary election will be conducted on April 20.
At the conclusion of the submission of the expression of interest and nomination forms by the 16 aspirants at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja over the weekend, Nze Chidi Duru, the APC Deputy National Organising Secretary, provided this assurance.
“Edo has become a test case. They know that the party is resolute in determining, through a process that is free, who the candidate of the party would be. The few who felt they would need to go to court as we would always expect, there was three sixty degree turnaround.
“They came to the negotiation table, had a handshake and now we have a very formidable team, and we believe that APC would win Edo state, and if we trust that APC would win Edo state, we have confidence that APC will win Ondo state,” he said.
