211

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has held local government congress elections across the country.

The exercise scheduled for Saturday was to elect the leadership of the party at the local government level, and those who eventually become delegates to regional and national congresses and convention.

APC held this second layer of the congresses after it ratified the Ward Congress Appeal Reports across the country.

APC’s Caretaker Committee Chairman and Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni said the court orders from Delta and Akwa Ibom will not stop the process as it does not affect the conduct of the exercise.

He asked party members to abide by the rules governing the election, promising that the party will address all anomalies emanating from the process.

In Lagos State, the congress held in the 20 local government areas.
