The National Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress has postponed the #LagosAPCprimaries saying a “fresh time and date for the election will be announced later”.

The National Working Committee’s panel of APC, Clement Ebiri, said the committee just got the list of the party agents of one of the aspirants in the race barely an hour ago.

We reached out to the party executives to submit list that would be utilised for the purpose of posting officials to supervise the elections.

“That list only arrived about an hour ago and so anything that was done without the list that we wanted … because we wanted harmony, so we waited for them. We waited for about 10 hours without getting anything.

“There is no way we could have gone ahead to do anything. It is only fair that if you don’t see one party you wait and that is what has brought us to this point.

“We gave them (party executive) an appointment and at the meeting, we all discussed some of these modalities and asked them to bring the names of these agents so that we could use for this exercise but we received from a party just an hour ago,” he said.

Recall that Mr Ebri, had earlier advised party supporters, residents and other stakeholders to be wary of “fake” election results being peddled on the social media.

Ebiri added that the NWC had been in crucial meetings with the candidates and other stakeholders.

He added that all materials meant for the election are still in their custody hence election could not have held.

Recall that the Lagos State Deputy Governor, Dr Idiat Adebule abandoned Governor Akinwunmi Ambode to support  Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu in the two-horse race to pick the ticket to represent the All Progressives Congress in the 2019 governorship election.

Adebule told newsmen at Ward A and D,  in Iba Local Council Development Area of Lagos where she participated in the governorship primary of the APC, that she would endorse the candidate chosen by the party.
