Reacting to the outcome, Nwoko alleged that legacy APC members were sidelined in favour of newcomers.
He said: “The legacy APC members have been shoved aside and the new guys that came in took over practically everything. That was the prize given to them for moving into the APC.”
He further revealed that party leaders, including the former national chairman, had assured him of a power-sharing arrangement.
“We were promised that there would be discussions on the new structure of the party. We were even told that the state exco would be dissolved to enable the old APC to get a foothold into government, but that was never done,” he stated.
Nwoko also claimed he was promised an automatic ticket before joining the party. “I was told before I came into the party that there would be an automatic ticket for me. That promise was broken because I had to compete for the ticket,” he said.
Rejecting the official results, Nwoko insisted he had evidence of victory in several wards.
“You cannot convince somebody who is innocent to say I am guilty. It’s not possible. We won the primary. I have the evidence, I have the video,” he declared.
He expressed confidence that the APC national leadership would review the matter.

uchechukwu.au said:
"They passed the law banning defection after primaries thinking they were doing Tinubu’s bidding to box Peter Obi in, not realizing they were equally part of Tinubu’s plans. He already knew most of them wouldn’t get return tickets in APC and would most likely defect to Peter Obi, which would only strengthen him. 😂."

"Labour Party people who decamp to APC after winning with the influence of Obi 2023 are learning new things now."
