The pan-Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere, has chided the Ogun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress for allegedly fuelling the crisis between Governor Dapo Abiodun and ex-govenor Gbenga Daniel.
Rather than fuelling the crisis between the two APC chieftains, Afenifere called on the Ogun APC to “deploy the party’s conflict resolution mechanism and goodwill to make peace between the governor and one of his illustrious predecessors.”
“We hereby warn Ogun APC, its State Working Committee and State Executive Committee to desist from causing and deepening division in the ranks of its elected officials. If the SWC lacks the capacity to promote peaceful co-existence among its elected officials statewide, it should, in the overall interests of our people, restrain from taking action that will complicate differences among the leaders,” Afenifere said.
But responding in a statement by its secretary, the Ogun APC accused Afenifere of biased, saying “it is our belief that the reaction of Afenifere was spurred and sponsored by Daniel, who never expected the avalanche of reactions that have greeted his syndicated and ill-motivated interview by well-meaning individuals and groups.”
The Ogun APC advised Afenifere to “put its fragmented house in order and not attempt to support indiscipline and treachery in APC, the type of indulgence that has turned Afenifere to a ghost of its noble past.” “Afenifere should remove the log in it’s eyes rather than looking at non-existing specs in APC’s,” Tella said.All rights reserved.
