Abuja Convention: Lagos APC Denies Reports of Stranded Delegates

The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has dismissed reports alleging that its delegates were stranded during the party’s national convention in Abuja, describing the claims as false and misleading.

 

In a statement issued on Saturday, the party’s Publicity Secretary, Seye Oladejo, urged the public to disregard the publication, which claimed that Lagos delegates were left stranded due to the non-release of mobilisation funds.

 

Oladejo stated that all accredited delegates from the state were transported to Abuja in a well-coordinated manner, with adequate arrangements made for their welfare throughout the trip.

 

He added that upon arrival in the Federal Capital Territory, the delegates were provided with suitable accommodation, contrary to the claims circulating in some reports.

 

The APC spokesman also clarified that the Lagos State Government does not finance party activities, stressing that the party manages its logistics and funding independently through its internal structures.

 

He urged the public to rely on verified information and be cautious of unconfirmed reports.

 

The Lagos APC further reaffirmed its commitment to party unity and continued support for governance efforts at both the state and national levels.
