{HMM} 9ice Denies Losing APC Primary, Releases Statement

Nigerian singer turned politician, Akande Abolore, popularly known as 9ice, has reacted to media reports that he lost out in the All Progressives Congress, APC primary election.



The ‘Gongo Aso’ singer is vying for the ticket to represent Ogbomosho North/South/Orire Federal Constituency of Oyo State under the platform of All Progressives Congress.
The Sun newspaper reported on Friday, December 5, 2014 that 9ice was defeated in the election, “after being widely considered as ‘the chose one”.

9ice denies the report dismissing it as a ‘blatant lie’.

His statement reads:

“I-Abolore Akande popularly known as 9ICE hereby debunk the news being published in THE SUN by Ckuks Eze today 5th December that I am no longer in the race to contest for the APC ticket as an aspirant for the House of Reps in Ogomosho South, North and Orire Federal Constituency as a blatant lie.”

“I suspect he has been bribed by my opponents to rubbish my efforts. It is a joke of the century and a plan by enemies and killers of good dream. I am very much in the race and with you support and prayers, success is certain.”
