APC Southwest Organising Secretary, Honourable Lateef Ibirogba.

He said it was a thing of pride that everything went well in the 9 constituencies in Ekiti state.

According to Honourable Ibirogba as it was in Ekiti where everything went smoothly without any rancour or disturbances, reports from all other parts of the country indicate all went peacefully.

He said this was so because APC gives priority to due diligence and conduct the party affairs acording to the Constitution and Electoral law.

Honourable Ibirogba therefore challenged all other opposition parties in the country to emulate APC in conducting their parties affairs.

He said APC is not happy that the opposition parties are not getting it right, and most of them are in disarray and lack organisation, to offer credible opposition.

Honourable Ibirogba said this is not good enough towards deepen democracy.

He thereby advised the opposition parties to get their acts together in order to offer constructive advice to the ruling party.

Honourable Ibirogba said the success of today's primary to the House of Representatives within APC shows that the future is bright for the country's democracy.

He prayed that the general election in 2027 will be like and the country will experience credible, free, and peaceful election.
