In spite of President Muhammadu Buhari’s delay in assenting to the proposed Electoral Bill, a governorship aspirant in Ekiti State, Hon Bamidele Faparusi, has told the national leadership of the All Progressives Congress to make the state a testing ground for the conduct of credible direct primary in the country.
“The national leaders of APC must rise above emotion and pedestrian thinking in some quarters and do exactly what the higher majority wanted, which is direct primary for Ekiti, Osun elections and others that will be coming in 2023. “Political parties are independent organs that can apply what is best for the people even without constitutional provision. President Buhari and many governors in APC were either reelected or elected in 2019 through the direct mode of primaries even when there was no law mandating that. That was democracy in action.
