Meanwhile, some members of the legacy parties that formed the All Progressives Congress (APC) yesterday protested at the Ilofa residence of the former Governor Bukola Saraki and at the Government Secondary School near Maraba Ilorin.
One of the protesters, Isiaka Tonyi Bara, who is an aspirant for the House of Representatives' seat in Ilorin West and Asa Federal Constituency, lamented that no legacy member was considered in all the positions in Kwara Central.
They called on Saraki to correct the anomalies and expressed confidence in the leadership of Saraki to address their concern.
