Kogi West Erupts in Protest Over Alleged Forged APC Primary Results Against Senator Karimi

Tension is rising across the seven local government areas of Kogi West as residents accuse unnamed political actors of circulating forged results to overturn Senator Sunday Steve Karimi’s victory in the APC senatorial primary. Supporters say they will march to the Kogi State Police Command in Lokoja to demand a full investigation into the alleged fakes and to protect the authentic outcome declared on May 18. Official figures released by the returning officer show Karimi won with 51,665 votes, far ahead of his nearest challenger. Protest leaders warn any attempt to replace these results will undermine internal democracy within the party. Party stakeholders are calling on national APC leadership and President Tinubu to intervene and sanction anyone behind the circulation of fake returns before divisions deepen in Kogi West.
