APC Denies Claims of Irregularities in Adamawa Primaries

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Adamawa State has refuted claims made by Peter Fwa, the Labour Party candidate, regarding irregularities in the senatorial primary elections. Fwa, who was declared the winner of the Labour Party senatorial primary on Saturday night in Yola, accused the APC of undemocratic practices.

Mazi Ochama, the chairman of the Labour Party in Adamawa, expressed concerns over the lack of internal democracy within the APC, stating that the party is not ready to adhere to democratic rules. He further alleged that the APC primary process was flawed, claiming that candidates were improperly reassigned to different positions.

In response, APC spokesman Victor Dogo insisted that the primary was conducted transparently and openly, with media coverage allowing the public to witness the voting process. Fwa expressed confidence in his grassroots support for the upcoming 2027 senatorial elections, where he anticipates competition against several candidates, including Bino Dauda Yaro and Felix Tangwami.
