APC Stakeholders Demand Justice for Noheem Adams' Candidacy

Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Eti-Osa Constituency I, Lagos State, have called on President Bola Tinubu to intervene in a dispute regarding the party’s candidate for the constituency ahead of the 2027 elections. They insist that Hon. Noheem Adams, who won the primary election on 20 May 2026 with 7,638 votes against Saheed Bankole's 1,225 votes, should be the APC candidate.

Despite this, the APC's official candidate list names Bankole as the nominee. The stakeholders, including ward leaders, grassroots mobilisers, youths, and women, urged the party leadership to respect the primary election results and resolve the issue through dialogue.

They emphasized the importance of grassroots opinions in the decision-making process and argued that restoring Adams’ candidacy would enhance party unity and confidence in its democratic processes. They appealed to Tinubu to listen to the grassroots and help reconcile the party's internal divisions.
