Following in the footsteps of the All Progressive Congress, The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has also postponed its governorship primary election in Lagos, Imo and Kano states.
The opposition party was supposed to hold primaries today and while it will still hold in other states, Lagos, Imo and Kano will be excluded to a later date.
This was made known by Kola Ologbondiyan, a spokesman for the party, in a statement released on Saturday.
The statement read: “The attention of the National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has just been drawn to rumour making the rounds that the PDP scheduled gubernatorial primary has been postponed.

“The PDP wishes to inform all delegates, members of our great party and aspirants for the gubernatorial election that the scheduled date for the primary remains Sunday, September 30, 2018.
“The rumour about the postponement should therefore be disregarded completely. However, the gubernatorial primary election dates for Lagos, Kano and Imo states would be announced soon.” said the PDP spokesman
The APC also postponed their Primaries with their spokesman, Yekini Nabena announcing that the primaries in Lagos and Imo could no longer hold today and that the ones in other states will still hold as planned.
This was particularly interesting as it could have an effect on the current issue regarding Governor Akinwunmi Ambode.
