PRESS RELEASE

IMO APC WARNS AGAINST UNAUTHORIZED SCREENING, MOCK PRIMARIES AND EXTORTION OF ASPIRANTS

The attention of the State Working Committee of our great party has been drawn to a disturbing trend where some individuals within the party are attempting to subject our candidates to unauthorized screening, extortion and mock primaries. This actions are not only undemocratic and unhealthy but contrary to the party’s established guidelines and procedures.

We strongly condemn these nocturnal and clandestine activities, which are deliberately designed to undermine the party’s democratic processes. We warn those individuals involved in this unauthorized exercise to desist immediately, as we will not hesitate to take disciplinary action against anyone caught engaging in such activities, regardless of their position or status within the party.

Our party is committed to upholding the principles of democracy, fairness, and transparency in all our activities. We will not allow any individual or group to compromise these values.

We urge all aspirants and stakeholders to disregard any invitation or solicitation to participate in these unauthorized screening, extortion and mock primaries.

Let’s be guided accordingly!
