This is coming on the heels of a rumoured governorship primaries allegedly fixed for tomorrow at the Liberty Stadium.

According to the party in a statement signed by its publicity secretary, Comrade Adedapo Ademola, and made available to journalists in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, those who are meeting with some leaders without the consent of the state chairman and state working committee of the party do so at their own risk.

“The party, from the beginning, has said that it will choose its candidates for all elective positions through primaries. We believe that this is necessary in view of what led us out of our party into our great party.

“We all came together to make this party the darling of the people of the state. We were all victims of imposition and other anti-democratic principles in our former parties. If we left our parties because of this, we should not indulge in such in this new party if we really want to make good showing in the 2019 election.

“We believe that if anybody would lose, it should be done in a democratic way. And everybody will be happy for it. We, the Executives of this party, are not aware of any adoption of planned primaries. Our party is about to complete screening exercise and would announce dates for primaries.”

The party, however, allayed the fears of the teeming party members, noting that it would use the best democratic method to choose its candidates.
