Tension in Delta over APC senatorial primary election 

The tension in Delta State refers to the violent clashes and political unrest that erupted after the All Progressives Congress (APC) held its senatorial primary elections in early 2023. Disputed results, allegations of vote‑buying, and accusations that the party leadership favored certain candidates led to protests by aggrieved aspirants and their supporters. The confrontations resulted in arrests, property damage, and heightened security concerns in several local government areas, prompting calls from civil society and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for a peaceful resolution and transparent adjudication of the primary disputes.
