The Nigerian Human Rights Community (NHRC), has said the Ekiti State All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship primary where Hon Biodun Oyebanji emerged the party’s flag bearer was a proof that direct primary remains the best option for Nigerian parties.
The body in its preliminary reports, signed by its officials, Fred Ojinika and Odebunmi Ajayi, said the direct primary conducted in Ekiti was credible, inclusive and transparent and that it represented the best way to reduce rigging to the barest minimal.
The group which had deployed 350 monitors spread across the 177 wards and thousands of polling units said its observations and recommendations will be forwarded to the National Assembly and all the registered political parties in the country.
