FCT Polls: Why APC lost Gwagwalada LGA – Wike

AI Summary

Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike said the All Progressives Congress (APC) lost the Gwagwalada Local Government Area because of problems with the party’s selected candidate. He indicated that internal issues, not electoral interference, led to the PDP’s victory in that LGA. Wike emphasized that his role gave him insight into the electoral dynamics but that his movements did not affect the result. The comment suggests the APC may need to reassess candidate selection ahead of future elections.
