The Rotimi Amaechi camp in the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Imo State has rejected the outcome of the party’s presidential primary election that declared former Vice President Atiku Abubakar the winner, describing the exercise as a “sham.”

Speaking to journalists in Owerri yesterday, the Orlu Zonal Coordinator of the Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi Imo State Campaign Structure and Convener of the Movement for Amaechi’s Presidency, Chigozie Alex, said the camp rejected the ADC presidential primary in Imo because, according to him, no primary election was held in the state. He said: “No elections were held in the majority of wards across the state.

“Registered ADC members who came out to vote were turned away because there were no officials, no materials, and no polling units. Where any activity took place, our accredited agents were not given the locations. “They were kept in the dark while a secret process was conducted without their presence.”
