PRESS STATEMENT

Amosun deserves our sympathy
- Ogun APC

The Ogun State Chapter of the  All Progressives Congress (APC), has said that Governor Ibikunle  Amosun of Ogun State deserves to be pitied and prayed for as his recent comments against the APC Governorship candidate, Prince Dapo Abiodun, bothers on “outgoing syndrome, emanating from political amnesia and loss of touch with reality”.

In a statement issued in Abeokuta on Wednesday and signed by the Publicity Secretary to the Ogun  APC State Executive Caretaker Committee, Comrade Tunde, Oladunjoye, the party said that the governor actually deserves sympathy.

The statement reads in part:
“But for the fact that the reported outbursts of the governor was reported by a credible online medium, we would not have taken him serious ; and for the fact that friends in the media have been asking for response, we would not have reacted.”

“However, rather than exchange words with the governor, we would call on members of the public  to please sympathize with the governor and pray for him, as he is obviously manifesting outgoing syndrome resulting from political amnesia, loss of touch with reality and fear of life after office”.

“For an individual to attempt to play God, and assault the collective intelligence of the well informed people of Ogun State by telling them who the next governor of Ogun State will be, as if he has already written the results, shows that such person deserves our pity; we don’t need to exchange words with him, but to actually sympathize with him on his present state of paranoia on Prince Dapo Abiodun.”

“The constant, unceasing and monotonous attacks on Dapo Abiodun by the governor and his minions shows that our candidate is the leading contestant and his imminent victory is only a matter of weeks. We challenge the governor to publish the recent survey he commissioned and which he read to some leaders in his house last week, wherein it was revealed that his preferred governorship candidate will not only lose the election, but also lose in the governor’s hitherto strongholds of Ifo, Ewekoro and Ado Odo Ota local governments.”

“Our party and candidate will remain focused, maintain decorum and continue to sell out policies and programmes to the good and discerning people of Ogun State, even as we are sure of victory”.

2019 ELECTIONS: OGUN APC RAISES ALARM OVER INFLUX OF KILLER'S SQUAD.

The publicity secretary of All Progressives Congress, Ogun State Chapter, Comrade Tunde Oladunjoye has raised alarm over impending "attacks and killings of political figures in Ogun State, especially leaders of APC" by some "identified" (unnamed) persons.

In a short statement shared on his social media (Facebook) page, the spokesman of the party in the state who was recently appointed  alongside other caretaker members by the National Working Committee of the party, Oladunjoye, claimed that those who are to be used in carrying out this heinous attack on political figures in the state "have already been brought in from Niger Delta", the South South region of the country.
"This is no political talk!
Let the whole world not look elsewhere when you start hearing of attacks and killings of political figures in Ogun State, especially leaders of APC.
Boys have already been brought in from Niger Delta." The short message reads.

It should be noted that former President Olusegun Obasanjo had during Ibogun-Olaogun Day celebration in Ibogun, Ifo Local Government of the state, where the State Governor Senator Ibikunle Amosun among other dignitaries present warned that the state should not be plunged into political violence in the coming election.

Chief Obasanjo was quoted to have stated that
"if you do not stop violence among your supporters, you will have yourselves to blame. There is no earthly reason why we should not have a peaceful election in the state".

There have been wide reports of political parties' campaigns attacks as well as campaign materials vandalism across the state by agencies of government and thugs loyal to a particular political leader rooting to install his preferred choice of candidates.
