The Lagos APC primary election has sparked fresh controversy as tensions escalate between party members and prominent market leaders. At the center of the storm is Abisoye Oshodi, whose decisions during the primaries have drawn sharp criticism.
Key figures, including the President’s daughter and the Iyaloja-General, the powerful leader of Lagos market associations, have publicly fired back, questioning his actions and calling for transparency.
Market associations, long influential in Lagos politics, have expressed deep dissatisfaction with how the primaries were conducted.
Their statements highlight concerns over alleged irregularities and the perceived marginalization of grassroots voices within the party.
The Iyaloja-General emphasized that the market community will not remain silent in the face of decisions that undermine their representation.
Political observers note that this clash could have broader implications for the Lagos APC ahead of the general elections. The open disagreement between influential figures and party operatives risks creating rifts that may affect party unity and voter confidence. With emotions running high, the developments signal that Lagos politics remains as unpredictable and intense as ever.
