Aregbesola commends aggrieved APC members for not defecting to opposition parties

Rauf Aregbesola, the former governor of Osun state has commended aggrieved members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) who lost out in the last primaries for not defecting to the opposition parties in Akwa Ibom state.

Legit.ng gathered that the former governor led other members of the South-South National Peace and Reconciliation Committee of the APC.

The former governor explained that the committee was in the state to interact and hear from leaders and concerned members of the party with a view to brokering truce as a result of grievances that trailed the last primaries of the party in the state.

Aregbesola addressing aggrieved aspirants said: ‘’I must commend you for the maturity you have exhibited by putting behind you the hurt to work for the victory of our party. It is obvious that the APC is taking over the state in 2019.

‘’Therefore, I urge you to bury the agonies, pains and miseries of the past and remain true to the party because the victory of the party will drive away all that. The arranged defection of APC members to the PDP at Ibom Hall shows that APC is strong in Akwa Ibom and it has successfully pushed Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to start acting mischievous.”

Ini Okopido, the state chairman of the APC, in his response expressed delight that the four aspirants that contested the governorship primaries of the party have decided to bury their hatchets and join hands to work with Obong Nsima Ekere, the flagbearer of the party, to ensure victory for the party in 2019.

Amosun fell out with his party after his preferred governorship candidate for Ogun state, Adekunle Akinlade was not recognised by the party.

The meeting, which was held at the State House, Marina, on Wednesday, had several APC members in Lagos, Ogun and some other states present except for Amosun and his loyalists.
