Adebayo also alleged that a similar incident occurred during the 2023 general elections, when the Labour Party was reportedly excluded from the ballot in the House of Representatives election for the constituency.
According to her, the Labour Party candidate at the time allegedly colluded with those behind the move, allowing the party to be left off the ballot without consequences.
She claimed that the individuals involved were now planning to repeat the alleged action against the NDC ahead of the 2027 elections.
Adebayo called on the party’s leadership and Nigerians to pay attention to the allegation and ensure that the party’s participation in the forthcoming election was not obstructed.
There has been no response from the APC or INEC to the allegations in the report.
