  "account": "Abdurahman Haske, a gubernatorial candidate for the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) in Adamawa State, criticized the All Progressives Congress (APC) method for addressing the state's crisis. Speaking on TVC's Politics on Sunday, Haske, a former APC aspirant, argued that the party's approach lacked an adequate consensus-building process ahead of the governorship primary. He maintained that he had no personal grievance with the party, but contended that its resolution strategy for the post-primary crisis was flawed.\n\nHaske highlighted that after the primary, there was no substantial effort from party elders and stakeholders to unite the remaining aspirants.

Haske contended that the governor had assured them of a free and fair primary, but the actual events on primary day were different.",
