The Ogun State Chapter of All Progressives Congress (APC) has released the names of candidates that emerged from the recent consensus primary conducted by the party for 2019 elections.
In a Press Release issued by the State Publicity Secretary of the party, Chief Wole Elegbede, the list consisted of consensus candidates that will fly the flag of the party in various elective positions in the 2019 general elections. The offices on the list are those of governorship, deputy governorship, three senatorial positions and nine House of Representative seats. The list of the 26 State House of Assembly seats will be released later.
However, the party has not foreclosed the possibility of direct primaries in constituencies where consensus fails.
The release said the conduct of the consensus primary, which was done in an open and transparent manner, demonstrated the party’s belief in the tenets of democracy.
