The All Progressives Congress (APC) Ogun State Chapter has called on some of its members said to be loyal to the immediate past Governor of the State, Senator Ibikunle Amosun to return fully into the party and work assiduously for its success in the next general elections.
Penpushing reports that, Publicity Secretary of the ruling party, Ambassador Tunde Oladunjoye made the call following the inauguration of Chief Yemi Sanusi as the authentic chairman of the party in the state by the national leadership of the party in Abuja
The chairman was inaugurated alongside other members of his executive who were affirmed duly elected on June 16, 2021 at the Moshood Abiola International Stadium in Abeokuta, the state capital.
Penpushing further reports that, Oladunjoye in a statement on Thursday encouraged aggrieved members said to belong to former Governor Ibikunle Amosun camp to return home fully,adding that inauguration of Sanusi led executive was a confirmation supremacy of the party and wishes of overwhelming majority members in the state
“We have always maintained that the party is supreme and nobody, no matter how highly placed, is above the party. There are laid down rules and processes for party congresses; anyone or group which goes against the procedures, no matter how loud their noise is, no matter how long their propaganda is; cannot gain from illegalities”, the statement emphasised
“Today’s event in Abuja confirming the authenticity of Chief Yemi Sanusi as Ogun State APC Chairman is a good opportunity for the “petitioners” to sheathe their swords and return fully to the mainstream of the party’, Oladunjoye wrote.
‘Our party leader and Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has always preached and practiced the policy of inclusiveness, which has even attracted juggernauts from other political parties into APC since 2019
, he added
“Again, and for the umpteenth time, we call on this splinter group to return fully to the party and start attending meetings at various levels of the party in the build-up to the next general elections’.
‘Any repeat of previous acts of disloyalty, anti-party activities, defection and gang-up, which could not stop the election of Prince Dapo Abiodun in 2019, is also bound to fail; more so, now that the party is stronger and more populated by experienced grassroots political heavyweights in Ogun politics’, the statement declared.
“We urge this set of people to make a detour from their serial petitioning and learn from the prolonged crisis of the State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which has been decimated and reduced to a paper-tiger because like the Bourbon tribe of France, PDP members in Ogun have learnt nothing and forgotten nothing”, Oladunjoye stated
