Obaseki and five other aspirants were screened by the committee earlier this week to validate their credentials and grant them clearance to vie for the party’s ticket to contest in the September 19 governorship election.
When the Professor Jonathan Ayuba-led seven-member committee presented its report to the party’s National Working Committee on Friday, June 12, the committee said Obaseki and two other candidates were not cleared.
Obaseki’s disqualification was due to the committee’s judgement that the governor’s school leaving certificate and NYSC certificate are defective.
Details later.
