Kogi APC Primaries: Adeyemi Shuns Supreme Court Order to Withdraw Appeal

Smart Adeyemi, a former senator who served as Kogi West’s representative in the 9th National Assembly, rejected the Supreme Court’s recommendation that he withdraw his petition challenging the procedures followed and results of the governorship primary election held by the Kogi State branch of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

On Thursday, the supreme court made a suggestion that Adeyemi’s appeal against the rulings of the two lower courts regarding the primary election, which took place in Kogi State on April 15, 2023, was incompetent.
