A former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, on Thursday, urged the party to give Governor Godwin Obaseki and Governor Rotimi Akeredolu second term tickets in line with a recent peace deal. “I welcome most warmly the news that Mr President has firmly endorsed the agreement reached to settle the disruptive leadership crisis at the national level that was threatening the very existence of the All Progressives Congress.
“The immediate relevant part of that agreement was that both the governors; Mr Godwin Nogheghase Obaseki of Edo State and Mr Oluwarotimi Odunayo Akeredolu, of Ondo State having performed creditably and should be returned unless they do not so wish. “This means that the party, in unity, should organise to support the return of both governors,” Vanguard quoted Odigie-Oyegun to have said.
Odigie-Oyegun hoped and prayed that a consensus could be built behind Governor Obaseki because “he has not offended any aspect of the APC’s constitution nor has he in any way brought the party to disrepute.”His words: “President Buhari subjected himself to party primaries in the build-up to the 2019 general elections.
