The  National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomole, on Tuesday, met with President Muhammadu Buhari at the State House in Abuja.

Speaking to journalists after the meeting, Oshiohmole said he was at the villa to update the President on the developments within the party and discuss issues surrounding the primaries.

He ruled out the possibility of recognizing results from parallel primaries across states.

“There is no parallel. We are a structured organization and we are governed by rules, and these are rules that represent the contract among and between members of the All Progressives Congress,” he said.

He also faulted the party’s primary in Imo State, saying that the results were fake and the exercise would have to be repeated.

“In Imo, not too good news for today and it’s not surprising. They have to learn to begin to comply with rules. They have two fake results and we are dumping both fake results – none of them is genuine and we will conduct, disband and appoint a fresh committee, electoral panel that would conduct a transparent direct primaries that reflects the will of the members of APC in Imo State, regardless of the interests and the powers that are behind any of the groups,” Oshiomhole said.
