Dr. Jeffrey Kuraun has strongly rejected the outcome of the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship primary election in Benue State, which was declared in favour of Governor Hyacinth Alia.
In a bold statement, Kuraun alleged widespread irregularities and diversion of election materials during the primary exercise. He challenged anyone claiming victory to provide concrete evidence of actual voting that took place across the 276 wards in the state.
The former aspirant demanded that the party either cancel the primary election or declare him the winner, insisting that the process was marred by serious infractions that undermined its credibility.
The development has sparked fresh controversy within the Benue APC ahead of the 2027 general elections, with many party members and observers closely watching how the national leadership will respond to the latest challenge to the primary result.
