A former Minister of Communication and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Oyo State, Barrister Adebayo Shittu has chided the reconciliation committee set up by the immediate-past governor of the state, late Senator Abiola Ajimobi to reconcile the aggrieved members of the party in the state.
While speaking on a radio programme, in Ibadan, at the weekend, Barr. Shittu, who affirmed he could speak on behalf of the Unity Forum in the APC declared Alao Akala as the least qualified leader to head the reconciliation committee in the circumstances of the state.
“The national working committee did not say Oyo State is not part of your mandate as a national reconciliation committee, you are to cover all the states of the federation, if that has happened and then you find perhaps one of the people who were active in creating the problems that we had now set up another committee to usurp the functions and responsibilities of the national working committee, then a big question mark arises.
“Out of about the twelve members that made up the committee, at least ten of them are known active acolytes of the late governor, if you have two main factions in the party, and you seriously and in good faith want to set up a reconciliation committee, the wisest thing would have been to take perhaps from both factions, that was not done.”
