Tinubu’s Son-In-Law Disqualified As Ekiti APC Guber Primary Agent

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has disqualified a son-in-law of its National Leader, Ahmed Bola Tinubu, as one of its agents in the party’s governorship primary election in Ekiti State.

Oyetunde Ojo’s disqualification follows the violence that trailed the recently cancelled APC primary election in the state.

The ruling party’s National Publicity Sclerectomy, Bolaji Abdullahi, said Ojo, who is a former member of the House of Representatives, alongside six others, would not be allowed to participate in its rescheduled governorship primary poll in Ekiti because of the role they played that led to the cancellation of the first primary election.

Bolaji said, “All identified unruly agents that participated in the suspended primary election of 5th May 2018 are disqualified from participating in the rescheduled primary as agents.

“Accordingly, the following individuals are hereby disqualified from participating as agents or partaking in the rescheduled primary in whatever capacity; Ayodeji Omowaye, Rotimi Faleye, Kayode Afolabi, Oladele Ademola Samuel, Oyetunde Ojo, Akintade Olayisade and Temitope Adewumi.

“All aspirants would be held vicariously liable for the conduct of their agents,” he said.

Ojo is husband to Folashade Tinubu, the iyaloja of Lagos.
