The All Progressives Congress in Benue State has recorded a high number of aspirants ahead of Saturday’s House of Representatives primaries, with at least 81 contenders seeking tickets across various constituencies.


Among the notable aspirants are Regina Akume and Blessing Onuh, whose participation has drawn political attention within the state.


The Benue State chapter of the All Progressives Congress is holding a keenly contested House of Representatives primary election on Saturday, with no fewer than 81 aspirants reportedly participating across the state.


According to a list released in the early hours of Saturday, the Vandeikya/Konshisha Federal Constituency recorded 14 aspirants, making it one of the most competitive races in the state. The constituency is politically linked to Benue State Governor, Hyacinth Alia.


In the Gboko/Tarka Federal Constituency, seven aspirants are contesting for the APC ticket. The constituency is the home base of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume.


Among those contesting in the constituency is Regina Akume, wife of the SGF.


Meanwhile, Blessing Onuh is seeking the APC ticket for the Otukpo/Ohimini Federal Constituency alongside three other aspirants.


Blessing is the daughter of former Senate President David Mark, who is currently associated with the African Democratic Congress.


Party members and aspirants were seen gathering at the APC secretariat in Makurdi as the primaries commenced.


The exercise is taking place amid renewed efforts by APC stakeholders to resolve internal disagreements reportedly linked to political camps associated with Governor Alia and Akume after months of factional tensions within the party in Benue State.


Political observers say the outcome of the primaries could influence the party’s internal power structure ahead of future elections in the state.
