INEC says report of Anambra APC primaries disqualification false

The Independent National Electoral Commission has dismissed reports on the disqualification of the All Progressives Congress governorship primaries in Anambra State.”
Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman Rotimi Oyekanmi, said the reports were false.
He said, “All these rookie journalists seeking attention; how can you just pick up a paper and you didn’t see INEC logo on it? That thing (statement) must have been concerted by someone and claiming that it is from INEC.
“Another thing you should know is that if we send people to monitor primaries of political parties, they are expected to write a report but that report is not for public consumption. It is supposed to be an internal report; and if anyone is found acting on that report, he should be arrested because he stole the report.
