Ogun 2027: ‘APC can’t suspend me after taking N50m’ – Hunye

Ogun State All Progressives Congress, APC, governorship aspirant for the 2027 election, Abayomi Hunye, has blasted the party for suspending him.

Speaking during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Tuesday, Hunye questioned how the APC could suspend him and still sell the nomination form to him for N50 million.

He said he received the necessary forms, completed the documentation and passed the screening process, stressing that he was number 52 on the screening list.

According to him, during the primary election on May 21, he was recognised as a valid candidate.

DAILY POST recalls that the APC disowned Hunye, who claims to be its Ogun governorship candidate for the 2027 election, and reaffirmed Solomon Adeola, popularly known as Yayi, as the duly recognised candidate.

Responding during the interview, Hunye said, “I bought the N50 million nomination form and was cleared for the screening.

“The first thing they said was that I had been suspended. They said I was suspended on April 7. How can you suspend me on April 7 and, on April 28, collect money from me and give me a form?

“I got the nomination form and the expression of interest form. I filled everything and returned it. I have the receipt. On the screening list, my number is 52.”
