APC Youths Protest Imposed Candidate in Kwara Primaries

The All Progressives Congress (APC) youth wing in Kwara State staged protests after the party’s leadership announced a “consensus” or imposed candidate for the 2023 gubernatorial primaries, bypassing an open contest. Young members accused the leadership of sidelining grassroots participation and demanded a transparent, democratic selection process. The demonstrations included rallies, sit‑ins at party offices, and social‑media campaigns urging the APC to withdraw the imposed candidate and hold a fair primary election. Views Nigeria
