The secretary debunked claims that a former minister hijacked the ward and local government congresses.

``It is not true that the process was hijacked by Dr Yerima Ngama, former minister of state for finance.

``It is false and baseless the allegation that the process was hijacked and even those mentioned in the claim have not complained to the party.

``The party has not received any complaint from any quarters alleging any wrong doing in the conduct of the congress,’’ the secretary said.
