There are signs that the on-going governorship primaries of the All Progressives Congress, APC, may suffer some hitches, Realnews has observed.

Not only that electoral materials were yet to arrive as at the time of filing this report (11:15 am), distribution of ID card, which will enable qualified members to vote were still far from completion as it was being carried out by the party chairman alone.

The situation has prompted a decision that people should vote with their permanent voter cards, PVC, or any other form of identification.

The National Working Committee has just warned the organisers of todays governorship primary election in Lagos to carry all the parties concerned along to avoid rancur and disturbance during and after the primary. They have also warned that all members that any valid identifications for example voters cards, national identity cards, driving license and son should be allowed to vote.

In any case, some local governments have already perfected their plans ahead of the primaries. For instance, in Agege, Mudashiru Obasa, speaker of the House of Assembly, addressed the APC members this morning. He said based on decision of the members in the local government, they will all vote for Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

Indeed, the two major aspirants gunning for the APC governorship ticket are Governor Akinwunmi Ambode and Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

Ambode is fighting a tough battle to remain in office for another four years. But Sanwo-Olu, who has the backing of Ahmed Bola Tinubu, the national chairman of the party, for the ticket. Hence, Tinubu and other APC leaders in the state have endorsed Sanwo-Olu for the party’s governorship ticket.
