The Ogun State chapter of the All
Progressives Congress on Thursday said it would provide a level playing field
for all its aspirants so as to boost its chances in the 2015 general elections
The state party chairman, Mr. Roqeeb Adeniji, said this at a reception organised in Abeokuta by the Ogun Central Senatorial district of the party for the new state executive committee members of the APC.
Adeniji said the incumbent governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, and other aspirants in the party would be subjected to transparent and credible primaries, adding that the APC was not interested in imposing any candidate.
He said, “The party has no anointed candidate for any elective position.”
He commended the APC members for keeping faith with the party leadership and the Amosun-led administration in the state.
Adeniji also added that the new executive had been duly received in the two other senatorial districts of Ogun East and Ogun West.
He said, “Since the last conduct of the party’s ward, local and state congresses as well as the attendant inauguration, there has never been an opportunity for the elected state party executive members to say thank you.
“But this rally is to publicly present state executive members to party loyalists to enable them to properly familiarise with other members of the party.”
He re-assured party loyalists that Ogun APC had not and would never lose its firm grip on politics in the state, adding that the opposition had no chance to defeating the ruling party in 2015.
Adeniji said, “There is no cause for alarm. Come 2015, Amosun will be re-elected for another term of office and that other members of both the state and National Assembly on the platform of APC will also win.”
Adeniji assured the APC members that every aspirant would be allowed to go for primaries “and whoever emerges for any position will be fielded as a candidate in the general elections.”
An APC chief, Chief Doja Adewolu, said the party elders were already working towards resolving the internal wrangling in the state chapter of the party.
