The senator representing the Ondo North Senatorial District of Ondo State, Olajide Ipinsagba, has denied a report that he had lost the just-concluded senatorial primary of the All Progressives Congress. Ipinsagba and some other contestants contested for the ticket of the APC in the last primary, but the result of the primary has not been released by the national Secretariat of the party in Abuja, putting all stakeholders in suspense.

The senator, in a statement issued by his media aide, Prince Adeyinka Ajagunna, on Monday, reacted to a report that his political career had ended following his purported loss in the primary. The senator described the report as false and mischievous, insisting that his political career had not ended in the senatorial district.

The statement read, “Our attention has been drawn to a commentary circulating in the media declaring the political career of Senator Olajide Ipinsagba, Senator representing Ondo North Senatorial District, is over following the recent APC primary. “We issue this in the interest of facts, decorum, and the democratic values our party and constituents hold dear.
