Our attention has been drawn to the pandemonium that followed the recently held. Ward Congresses of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Ogun State Chapter on Saturday, 5th April, 2014.
The violence and civil disturbance that erupted during and after the congress with a lot of party members sustaining different degree of injuries has further exposed the APC to be a conglomieration of greedy politicians who are hell bent in acquiring power at all means without being prepared for the responsibility of leadership.
If at ordinary ward congress blood-letting and maiming could be the order of the day one wonders what we are to expect in the remaining party congresses not to talk of the general elections. it is amusing that a Political party that claims to be the symbol of democracy and pacesetter could disintegrate and demonstrate the height of undemocratic acts. From the above, it is evident that All Progressive Congress in Ogun State will employ all means to retain itself in government at all cost which could jeopardize the peaceful conduct of the 2015 general election.
It must be recalled that the Labour Party in Ogun State recently held its congresses in the State which could be regarded by every standard as one of the best organized Party Congresses as it was devoid of any crisis. The Labour Party is however using this medium to appeal to the good people of Ogun State to embrace the social democratic ideals of the Labour Party by joining it and vote out the All Progressive Congress in the next general election in order to save our people from the bondage the APC will put the people into if voted into power by Year 2015.
Conclusively, it is our considered opinion that the APC leadership in the state will appease its members ahead of the coming Local Government congress to avoid another audacious outing.
As usual, it is expected that the APC lying machinery will attempt to cover up this insolence. But they must be reminded that the truth is constant, hence the veracity of any claim resides with the people.
