Two serving members of the House of Representatives from Rivers State, Awaji Inombek Abiante and Boma Goodhead, have been denied return tickets by the All Progressives Congress.

The lawmakers were disqualified from contesting the party’s primaries scheduled for Saturday (today), alongside two other aspirants, Air Commodore John Opera (retd.) and Anderson Igbiki, who are loyalists of Governor Siminalayi Fubara.

Abiante is one of the prominent Rivers politicians who purchased a governorship form for Fubara.

This was contained in the final list of aspirants released by the party and sent to our correspondent on Friday.
