The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is set to hold its primary election today (Monday) to decide who will be its candidate in the November 18 exercise.
Six candidates; Ifeanyi Ubah, Oseloka Obaze, Stella Oduah, Alex Obi-Ogbolu, John Emeka and Linda Ikpeazu, are to battle for the party’s governorship ticket.
However, ahead of the primary, some of the aspirants are alleging that the list of delegates to the election have been hijacked.
The aspirants claim the issue may make or mar today’s exercise and are appealing to the PDP Delegate Appeal Panel led by the Governor of Ebonyi State, Mr Dave Umahi to look into the matter.
This comes after the election of the governorship candidate for the APC, Mr Tony Nwoye, on Sunday.
Mr Nwoye, a member of the House of Representatives scored 2,146 votes to defeat his nearest rival, Senator Andy Ubah who got 931 votes.
