APC Heavyweights; Bola Tinubu and John Oyegun Clash over Ondo State Election












National Newspapers and media houses yesterday revealed that the National leader of the Party asked for the immediate resignation of the Party's National Chairman John Oyegun. Tinubu accused John Oyegun of upturning the decision of the majority who voted in favor of the cancellation of the primary and the conduct of a fresh one.In a stinking communique sent to Oyegun and other chieftains he accused Oyegun of interfering and sabotaging the will of the Ondo state electorate. 

Tinubu stated, “He has shown that he and democratic fairplay cannot exist in the same party at the same time.

“In early September, the (Ondo) State primary was held. A purported winner was named. Having faith in the ways of the party, Tinubu publicly accepted what he assumed to be a verdict honestly derived.
“As a democrat, one must face the possibility of defeat and accept such an outcome with as much grace as one would embrace victory.”

“If Tinubu is to choose between John (Odigie-) Oyegun and progress toward a better Nigeria, the choice has already been made. For those who care about the party, who care about Nigeria and its chance for a better tomorrow, now is the time to stand against this brewing evil before it grows to encompass all we have built and all we hold dear.”


Attempts to get the reaction of Odigie-Oyegun were unsuccessful.
