The protesters were armed with placards bearing various inscriptions such as 'Ondo APC rejects Kangaroo primary election,' 'No primary held in Ondo,' and 'We want a fresh election,' among others. Coincidentally, their protest occurred during the National Working Committee meeting, where aggrieved aspirants were being placated to reconcile and support Aiyedatiwa ahead of the governorship election in November.
Addressing journalists on Thursday, Johnson also appealed to President Bola Tinubu and other party leaders to prevail upon the National Working Committee of the party to inaugurate a new election committee chairman to oversee the fresh poll. He stated, 'How can you claim to ratify the outcome of a primary and declare a candidate? It indicates foul play. Ondo is APC, and APC is Ondo State. We won't sit idly by and allow opposition parties to seize Ondo from us.
