President Bola Tinubu’s daughter and Iyaloja General of Nigeria, Mrs Folashade Tinubu-Ojo, on Wednesday threatened a protest over the outcome of the recently held All Progressives Congress (APC) primaries in Lagos State. She alleged that the process was skewed in favour of the party’s Justice Forum bloc.
Speaking during the weekly meeting of market leaders and stakeholders at her office in Alausa, Ikeja, Tinubu-Ojo particularly claimed that the results published by the Lagos APC for Mushin Federal Constituency 2, Agege Constituency 2 and Ojokoro constituencies were skewed.
She urged APC leaders at both state and national levels to urgently investigate the disputed primaries before final ratification of the results, warning that failure to act could deepen internal tensions within the ruling party. The Lagos State chapter of the APC had on Monday released the list of candidates who emerged from its House of Representatives and State House of Assembly primaries ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Tinubu-Ojo specifically cited alleged victories of some candidates, including Hon. Seye Oladejo in Mushin Constituency 2, Mutiu Olaide Oladeebo in Agege 2, and Olotu Ojo in Ojokoro, insisting their mandates should not be altered and that she and her supporters are ready to protest for them. She warned that unresolved grievances arising from the primaries could destabilise internal cohesion within the party ahead of the next general election cycle.
