Ondo 2020: Tinubu, Fayemi, Akande, others meet over lingering crisis
A national leader of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, and the pioneer chairman of the party, Bisi Akande, led other South-west leaders of the party to Akure, the Ondo State capital on Tuesday, to work together to ensure the party emerged victorious in next year’s governorship election.
Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, who initially failed to unite the party members immediately after emerging as governor of the state, lately began to sue for peace as challenges against him for the APC ticket ahead of next year’s polls became imminent. The opposing faction are populated by loyalists of the national leader, whose singular ambition is to ensure Mr Akeredolu failed in his bid to secure a return ticket to the Alagbaka government house.Speaking at the meeting, Mr Tinubu, who noted that conflicts were not strange in the political environment, charged leaders and members of the party in the state “not to destroy the house they had built.”“We are leaving one thing behind, the charity that must begin at home.
The former Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Ali Olanusi; former Ondo APC chairman, Isaac Kekemeke; APC chieftain, Olusola Oke; APC governorship contender, Segun Abraham and former commissioner for Regional Integration in Osun State, Bola Ilori among were also among other leaders who attended the meeting.Mr Akeredolu thanked the leaders for their commitment and support for the progress of the party in the state.
