Alhaji Abubakar Akhokhia, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has received a query letter from the Etsako West APC chapter of the party over comments he made about the upcoming off-circle election in Edo State next year.
Akhokhia’s comments suggested that the party’s ticket had been zoned solely to Benin.
This statement was seen as a deviation from the party’s line and caused a stir among party leaders. The query letter seeks an explanation for his comment and asks him to provide evidence to back up his claim.
Akhokhia has yet to respond to the letter, and it remains to be seen what further action the party will take.
