Actor and House of Representatives aspirant Emeka Ike staged a protest at the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) headquarters in Abuja on Monday, expressing strong displeasure over the outcome of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) primary election for the Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC) seat.
Ike, who recently declared his intention to contest under the NDC platform, alleged that the primary election was marred by irregularities. According to sources, the actor lost the party’s primaries.
Addressing officials at the INEC office, an irate Ike vowed to seek justice, stating that the electoral process was flawed. “We don’t have an address when the election is going on. I am an aspirant, I’m a Nigerian. You won’t go away with this. I don’t do social media activism. INEC will not escape this,” he declared.
