One of the national chairmanship candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prof. Tunde Adeniran, have rejected the outcome of the party’s national convention and the process that led to the emergence of key officers.

Taiwo Akeju, Director, Media and Publicity of the Adeniran Campaign Organisation, called for the cancellation of the entire exercise.

He accused Gov. Nyesom Wike of Rivers and his Ekiti counterpart, Ayodele Fayose, of being the masterminds of the unity list distributed to the delegates.

“We reject the entire electoral process. The election has been grossly compromised to achieve a predetermined end.

“The illegal unity list is prepared by governors Wike and Fayose to foist on the entire delegates,” he said.

Akeju, however, called on the Board of Trustees (BOT) of the party to take over the affairs of the party until proper election would be conducted since the National Caretaker Committee has been dissolved.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the rejection of the unity list by the frontline chairmanship candidates was done before the final collation of the elections results.
