APC primaries: Kosofe Reps aspirant rejects results

An aspirant of the All Progressives Congress for the House of Representatives seat in Kosofe Federal Constituency, Lagos State, Remi Oluwalogbon-Odunsi, has rejected the results of the party’s primary election.

The APC conducted its House of Representatives primary elections across the country, including Lagos State, on Saturday, May 16, 2026, ahead of the general elections.

In a statement personally signed by her on Sunday, Oluwalogbon-Odunsi said the figures and declarations being circulated did not reflect any voting process conducted in Kosofe.

“I reject the purported results being circulated and announced in respect of the primary election held yesterday,” she said.

The aspirant described the development as a violation of the procedures outlined by the APC for the conduct of primary elections, adding that she could not accept the outcome being circulated.

“Accordingly, I do not recognise or accept the purported outcome being circulated. Acknowledging the results would amount to endorsing a process that did not follow due process,” she stated.

Oluwalogbon-Odunsi said she had submitted a formal petition and appeal to the appropriate party authorities, requesting an urgent review of the exercise.

“A formal petition and appeal detailing her observations, concerns, and requests have already been submitted to the appropriate party authorities for urgent review. I expects the party to examine the matter and take necessary corrective action,”she said.

She also called on the leadership and stakeholders of the APC to intervene, saying transparent and credible internal elections were necessary to protect the party’s integrity and maintain confidence among aspirants, delegates, and party members in Kosofe Federal Constituency.

According to her, adherence to laid-down procedures is essential for party unity and cohesion ahead of the general elections.

Oluwalogbon-Odunsi further reaffirmed her commitment to the APC and its democratic values, noting that her action was intended to strengthen the party rather than create division.

Dele Osinowo was announced as the winner of the House of Representatives primary election for the federal constituency.

The result, however, has been rejected by another aspirant, who has raised concerns over the conduct of the exercise and the process leading to the declaration.
