Speaking with ABN TV in Umuahia on Monday, a former chairman of the party in the state and chairman of the LG electoral committee, Ceekay Igara claimed that his committee has conducted a primary election, waiting for approval of the National Executive Committee to approve submission to the Abia State Independent Electoral Commission (ABSIEC).
Meanwhile, another list of those who emerged victorious from another primary election believed to have the governor’s backing is circulating online.
But Igara insists that his committee allegedly set up by the party’s national leadership is the one charged with the responsibility of holding the primary LG election.
According to him, the national leadership of LP made available nomination forms his committee sold to aspirants, wondering how another faction could claim to have held a primary election without nomination forms.
He insists that all nomination forms for the recent primary elections were provided by the LP national leadership, insisting that his committee has the backing of the LP national headquarters
