The national chairman of the South West Agenda For Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu 2023 (SWAGA), Senator Dayo Adeyeye has said no ward congress was held in Ekiti
One person was killed as the congress turned violent following a clash between Tokan-Tokan and SWAGA groups of the party
He said”The Ward Congresses purportedly took place in Ekiti State. But the manner of its conduct was nothing near all democratic norms as it was warped, disorderly, perverse and can only pass for a charade. “We are hereby telling the CECPC, our party members nationwide and indeed, all Nigerians, that there was no congress in Ekiti State yesterday. What happened was a charade that cannot pass the test of democracy and it is totally unacceptable”.
“This is even as the CECPC had earlier advised that effort be geared towards the peaceful resolution of conflicts so that the APC could birth consensus delegates across board”
