Very ridiculous - APC chieftain mocks Desmond Elliot counter withdrawal claim

Ayekooto Akindele, a chieftain of the APC, countered claims by actor-turned-politician Desmond Elliot that he withdrew from the party's primary election due to intimidation. Akindele stated that Elliot participated in the election but was overwhelmingly defeated, calling his claims ridiculous. He added that Elliot quickly organized a press conference after his defeat, claiming he had withdrawn and alleging that his 'supporters' were not allowed to vote.
