Edo State All Progressives Congress, APC Youth leader, Tony Adun, aka Kabaka, a popular associate of Senator Adams Oshiomhole has apologised to the party after youths vandalised the secretariat after the first primary election on February 17, which initially threw up three winners.

GWG.ng reports that there were several reports of how APC youths forced their way into the offices and brought out the furniture, bags of rice and other equipment, vowing to stay at the building for seven days or till the state executive council is dissolved.

GWG.ng reports that the move came after the party leadership in the state appeared to back the tendency that declared Senator Monday Okpebhelo winner of the primary as against Dennis Idahosa, the aspirant said to have been backed by Oshiomhole.

However, following the order for a repeat primary, Okpebholo was declared the winner with 12,433 votes to defeat Idahosa, who scored 6,541 votes and to represent the party in the Edo 2024 governorship election.

Following the new reality, Kabaka in a video that went viral made a passionate appeal to APC leaders, saying:

He said, “I, Comrade Tony Kabaka, the state youth leader of the APC, wish to apologise to our leaders, women leaders of our great party and all our youths as regards the conduct of aggrieved APC youths during the party primary which took place on the 17th February 2024.

“The party is supreme, I will work with the party and leaders to ensure that our candidate, Senator Monday Okpebholo, is victorious and I wish to use this medium to congratulate him on his victory at the just concluded party primary.

“I want to urge all youths to embrace peace and let us all work together to make sure we succeed in the general elections come September 2024, I remain a loyal party man.

“I wish to use this opportunity to appeal to our state chairman, Jarret Tenebe, and state secretary, Lawrence Okah, and other members of the state working committee to lead us to rebuild the party and bring all of us together to ensure our party produce the next governor in the elections.”
