APC Primary: Amaechi, Osinbajo, Others Can Express Disappointment – Morka

The National Publicity of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Felix Morka on Wednesday debunked the claims of cold war between the presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, and some presidential aspirants.

Morka noted that all the presidential aspirants in the party contested to clinch the party’s ticket.

He, however, stated the presidential aspirants who are aggrieved have right to express their grievances due to their failure to clinch the party’s ticket.

Morka stated this while speaking during an interview on Lagos TV on Wednesday.

He said, “I am not aware of any war, let alone a cold or hot one. People went into primaries to compete and find favour with the electorate, in this case, the primary voters in our party. At the end of it, Asiwaju prevailed and I think that every other aspirant has the right if they choose to have that momentary period they disagree on why they didn’t win.

“Even as sportsmen, we didn’t see anyone really go out to scream ‘blue murder.’ But people have the right to feel somewhat dissatisfied or entirely unhappy with the outcome.”

He further stated that the party is working on the inside to address the grievances of party members.

Morka added, “But fortunately for us, we have eminent men and women, great citizens of this country who have made their own mark and competed in that primary and understand the whole logic of competition.”
