Yahaya Bell on the conduct of primaries for Kogi West Senatorial district.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe allegations were untrue and calculated attempts to cause disaffections within the party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLong before the party issued guidelines for the sale of forms, there was an attempt by some major stakeholders of the party in the state to drag the Hon Minister of State for FCT Dr Ramatu Tijani who is from Kogi West into the Senatorial race and have her as a consensus candidate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA committee was put in place to call all aspirants that had indicated interest and seek their opinions, whether they can all withdraw for her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe lobby for withdrawal and promises for other positions was not limited to Senator Smart Adeyemi but all aspirants.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNone of the aspirants agreed to the deal and the Honorable Minister did not come forward to show interest in the arrangement, the whole idea was then jettisoned while everyone was advised to go further to exercise their rights when the sales of forms commenced.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven with a state unity list, all primaries carried out in the state inclusive of the Senatorial primaries in Kabba was free, fair and transparent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo delegate was forced to vote one way or the other. Accreditation and voting exercises were carried out openly with INEC, security agencies and the press witnessing the exercise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSenator Smart Adeyemi\u2019s agent at the polls Mr Taiye Ikupeleye signed the return sheet without any complaint.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is rather unfortunate for an elder statesman like our distinguished Senator to make such spurious allegations. We should learn to accept defeat and move on.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven if our Senator has taken membership of the Senate as a career, he must pass through a due process to fly the flag of our party\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The All Progressive Congress (APC) in Kogi State says delegates were not compelled to vote one way or the other during the party primary.
