Coalition Urges Tinubu to Intervene in Ekiti APC Crisis, Warns of Threats to Democracy
The Coalition of Civil Society Groups (COCSG) has called on Bola Tinubu to intervene in the APC crisis in Ekiti State, accusing the party leadership of imposing Governor Biodun Oyebanji as a consensus candidate for the upcoming governorship election. The coalition described this move as a betrayal of internal democracy within the party.
They demand the reinstatement of disqualified aspirants and the establishment of a reconciliation review panel to restore confidence and unity within the Ekiti APC. The group warns that the crisis could impact the party's chances in the 2026 general elections and undermine Tinubu's political standing.
