Despite the physical presence of President Muhammadu Buhari at Saturday’s mega rally of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Akure, the Ondo State capital, the Alliance for Democracy, AD, in the state has described the event as an “ignominious failure,” adding that the intractable crisis within the APC was noticeable during the governorship rally.
Recall that a national leader of the APC, Tinubu was noticeably absent at the party’s governorship campaign rally in Akure, which was also not attended by three APC governors in the South-West, namely: Mr. Akinwumi Ambode of Lagos, Senator Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo and Mr. Rauf Aregbosola of Osun State.
Reacting to this in a statement, the state secretary of AD, Dr Sola Agboola, asserted that the failure of Tinubu, Chief Bisi Akande, Vice President Yemi Osibajo, Senator Ajayi Boroffice, and three out of the four APC governors in the South-West at the grand finale of the APC campaign indicated that there was division in the party.
While claiming that the APC supporters and crowd at the rally were imported from the neighbouring South-West and Edo states, he said it will make APC lose by a wide margin in the election to AD candidate, Chief Olusola Oke.
The statement reads, “When they held their mega rally in Akure last week, it was obvious that the party was in tatters as virtually all its leaders stayed away from the event.
