After being disqualified on two occasions by the APC State Screening Committee, one of the two chairmanship aspirants in Ejigbo LCDA, Mr. Peter Ajayi has been finally reconsidered by the Appeal Committee to participate in the Saturday party primaries.
Ajayi, together with three other aspirants – Bukoka Damilola Ajala from Itire-Ikate, Olufunke Rekiya Hassan from Onigbongbo and Akingbola Olalekan from Ifelodun LCDA, were pardoned by the Appeal Committee led by the former Lagos State Deputy Governor, Femi Pedro.
As reported by ECHONEWS, the Babatunde Ogala led screening committee had earlier disqualified Ajayi for his failure to present his voter’s card and birth certificate before he was solicited for to re-present the credentials the following week.
After the exercise, the result of the screening further indicated that Ajayi was not cleared by the committee based on his performance score below 60% and inability to present a birth certificate.
However, ECHONEWS gathered that he was eventually considered by the Appeal Committee to participate in the primary election.
