An Ibadan-born Yoruba actress, Funke Adesiyan
who was recently announced as the ruling All
Progressives Congress (APC), candidate for the

But, the actress while speaking on Monday,
however, alleged that her name has been
substituted for another candidate whom she
defeated during the election.

Adesiyan while raising the alarm via her Instagram
page voiced out about the injustice allegedly
meted out to her by the APC to aspirants who
bought forms and contested for the party’s
primaries.
Adesiyan who claimed that she scored 207 votes
to defeat her rival who got 32 votes, revealed that
her ticket which she won at the primary election
has been allegedly taken from her and given to a
preferred “anointed candidate”.
She accused the APC of allowing aspirants to
spend so much money on purchasing forms and
going on campaigns while already, the party had
their own chosen candidate, saying she has ‘been
made to believe and accept the outcome in good
fate”.
Adesiyan while reacting via her Instagram said,
“Dear friends, we have come to the end of a long
journey. A very rigorous and eventful one. The
people of Ibadan South East 2 have spoken. They
spoke loudly and clearly.
“The journey of the last one year has been halted,
and I thank you all for standing by me. For
believing in my vision and for throwing your
weight behind me in critical moments. I will never
take this significant support for granted.
“The primary election has come and gone and I
have been made to believe and accept the
outcome in good fate.
“While I am not quite happy that my hard-earned
mandate was taken from me, as this stands
against the principle with which I stand for, I can’t
go against the wish of our great party, All
Progressives Congress (APC).
“I can’t understand why people, who bought forms
sold at exorbitant prices, went for primaries and
emerged winners only to be told that their names
had been swapped for other “anointed
candidates”. One may be tempted to ask why we
had primaries in the first place if the party’s
hidden agenda was to impose candidates?
“This is one old injustice that has continued to
dwarf the progress and entrenchment of internal
democracy, one that has denied many people the
full blessings of fulfilling their ambition politically.
“There is no better evidence of this than the
brazen act of injustice that forced me to surrender
my mandate.
“I urge all my supporters not to be wary as this is
a phase that will soon pass.
“Today, I hold in my heart nothing but love for my
people as I call on you all to not despair of our
present difficulties but to believe, always, in the
promise and greatness of our party (APC), Oyo
State and Nigeria because nothing is inevitable
here.”
I implore you all to go all out and vote for the
APC in the 2019 general election and ensure that
we record a resounding victory.
“Thank you and God bless Oyo state. Funke
Adesiyan”.
