A former chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State, Hon. Bola Ilori has said the National leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu was the one who instructed them to join the Alliance for Democracy.
Tinubu’s decision was taken following the way he was treated on the party’s governorship primary election which was upheld on September 3, by the national executive committee members, led by Chief John Oyegun, DailyPost quoted Bola Ilori as saying on TVC Political programme.
Ilori, who is a staunched supporter of another aspirant, Chief Olusola Oke was said to have raised alarm over alleged padding of the delegates’ list.
But their action failed as the APC NWC threw out the report of the Appeal panel on the ground that the committee did a shady job.
However, Oke has defected to AD and is expected to fly the flag of the party in the coming poll.
Ilori, who spoke on TVC political programme said ”I don’t know APC before; it was Asiwaju Tinubu that said we should move to APC and we did.
“He has said AD is the option now; even If he said AA we won’t look back before we move to the party.
“All they are doing in the National headquarters of the party is Anti-Tinubu policies; not in Ondo alone but also in Kogi, Edo, Ogun and other parts of the country.
“Let Oyegun resign first and the problem of the party will be drastically reduced.
Recall that Tinubu thrown his weight behind one of the aspirants, Mr. Segun Abraham to become the party’s candidate, ahead of the November 26, gubernatorial election in Ondo State.
But, his anointed aspirant came second with 635 votes, while Mr. Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, was declared winner with 669 votes.
