The Osun Progressives (TOP), a major divide within the All Progressive Congress in Osun on Sunday accused the political group of Governor Gboyega Oyetola of scheming to manipulate the congress of the party.
TOP in a statement signed by its Chairman, ‘Lowo Adebiyi rejected what it said is the consensus arrangement being put in place ahead of the congress slated to hold on Saturday.
“As we speak, the state Chairman of the Caretaker committee, Prince Gboyega Famodun has refused to carry along the state Secretary, Deputy Chairman, Auditor, Publicity secretary and some other members of the state executives who do not tag along with the evil idea of selling the party ideals to the Governor's group, the IleriOluwa,” the statement said.
The statement added that only a political novice will believe that the good intentions of the National Caretaker and Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee will be successful in Osun due to some developing issues that are at variance with the principles of consensus building in Osun APC.
It added, “The aforementioned officers are not privy to anything in preparation for the coming Congress as Prince Famodun has refused to call any meeting for deliberation on Congress matters.”
Adebiyi said it is an established fact that the Governor's political group, the IleriOluwa is not ready to share an inch of all the political space with any other interest groups by virtue of their utterances, conducts and deeds.
“It will therefore be foolhardy and suicidal for other interest groups and stakeholders to talk of consensus building with the party and government backed IleriOluwa group which has manipulated the membership register to maximum advantage.
“It is doubtless that the Governor's group, IleriOluwa wouldn't give a position to other stakeholders in the party in pursuit of the beautiful and peaceful consensus building but it's certain that this will have consequences if things are allowed to happen the selfish IleriOluwa way.
