APC rigged its own primary election under INEC watch – Isaac Fayose [VIDEO]

Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose has alleged that the recently concluded All Progressives Congress, APC, primary elections were rigged.

DAILY POST reports that the ruling party recently concluded its primary elections ahead of the 2027 general elections.

President Bola Tinubu was on Monday declared winner of the presidential primary conducted across the country’s 8,809 wards in all 774 local government areas.

The President was said to have polled 10,999,162 votes to defeat his only challenger, Mr. Stanley Osifo, who got a total of 16,503 votes.

However, video clips circulating on social media captured moments where the number of voters was allegedly inflated.

Reacting, Isaac Fayose, in a post on his official Facebook page on Tuesday, lamented that the ruling party “rigged their own primaries under INEC watch.”

According to him, if the Independent National Electoral Commission could ratify such an allegedly marred primary election, the outcome of the 2027 general elections would not be different.

He said, “They claimed that over ten million people voted for Tinubu in their primary election, but you could see how they were counting from hundred and jumping to one thousand.

“From one thousand, they jumped to ten thousand and INEC officials were there. Yet some people say they will not rig in 2027. They are rigging already. Don’t expect free, fair and credible elections in 2027.

“These people are not ready to leave us alone. They are ready to put you down forever. For INEC to ratify the APC primary election, they have shown you how 2027 will be.

“In 2027, they are going to declare ten million votes for our worst president.”
