In a shocking development, the Ekiti State Chapter of the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC) has suspended its Chairman, Pastor Owoola Daramola, over allegations of financial mismanagement and gross misconduct.
The suspension, announced in a statement signed by IPAC Secretary Hon. Isaac Fayeba and PRO Prince Adedayo Ademola, follows an extraordinary executive meeting held on 26 February 2026.
According to the statement, Daramola, a member of the Young Progressive Party (YPP), is accused of failing to render financial statements for N3.09 million and other donations received on behalf of the council. He is also accused of parading proxies as IPAC members and appointing a non-member as the electoral chairman for the upcoming IPAC election.
The suspended chairman has reportedly transformed the IPAC office into a secretariat for his Rainbow Coalition group, excluding other executives and imposing his preferred candidate as chairman.
The IPAC Ekiti Chapter has appointed Mr Femi Obidoyin of the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) as acting chairman, pending an investigation by the national headquarters. The allegations have raised concerns about the integrity of IPAC and its leadership.
The move underscores the growing need for accountability and transparency in Nigerian politics.
What’s the impact of IPAC in Nigeria politics? This is an association of failed parties and it’s leaders. They should join real parties if they desire to contribute to democratic development rather than wait for inducement during elections. Bunch of jokers.
