The All Progressives Congress(APC), Oyo State chapter, yesterday passed a vote of confidence on Gov. Abiola Ajimobi and the chairman of the party, Chief Akin Oke.
The party described Ajimobi and Oke as good political players whose wealth of experience and managerial acumen facilitated the victory of APC in the last general elections in the state.
In a statement, Director of Publicity and Strategy of the party, Olawale Sadare, denied speculation about an alleged internal crisis in the state chapter of the party, noting that the rumour was the handiwork of some misguided elements.
According to the statement; “the well attended executive session at the South West office of APC was the first in the last few months and it reviewed a number of critical issues such as consideration of the reports of the last general elections as well as those of the committees set up to recommend appropriate disciplinary actions for erring members including some members of the National Assembly.
”The meeting lauded the proactive steps taken by Senator Ajimobi and the State Working Committee (SWC) of the party which were enough to resolve the leadership crisis that threatened the smooth inauguration of the 8th Oyo State House of Assembly. The steps prevented what could have thrown the state into another round of intractable infighting in the legislative chamber.”
