Ekiti APC Stakeholders Protest At Party Secretariat, Reject Consensus Gov Candidate

The All Progressives Congress (APC)’s National Secretariat in Abuja was attended by angry Ekiti State members on Friday.

Before the 2026 elections, the protesters demanded that the National Working Committee (NWC) hold a legitimate governorship primary election in the form of placards and chanting solidarity songs.

They objected to the alleged effort to impose a party-wide candidate in the state.

In some of the protesters’ placards, there were words like “We don’t want consensus,” “Women say no to consensus candidate in Ekiti,” and “Disqualification is political harassment.”

A consensus arrangement, in the opinion of the protesters, is a deliberate attempt to prevent other candidates from running for governor.
