ABEOKUTA– The All Progressives Congress (APC) Chairmanship Candidate for Obafemi-Owode Local Government area of Ogun State, Hon. Adesina Lanre Ogunsola has refutes allegations and claims made by the aspirants against him, saying they are baseless, unfounded and should be disregarded in their entirety.
Ogunsola stated this in a press statement made available to The News Ville in Abeokuta on Saturday, adding that the allegation of forgery and perjury levelled against him by the aspirants has been sufficiently addressed by the Party leadership which refuted same and absolved him of any misdemeanor.
He further stated that, “the claim that my selection was unacceptable to the generality of APC stakeholders in Obafemi-Owode LGA or did not follow due process is illogical and should be discountenanced.
“The attempt by these aggrieved aspirants to disparage notable and highly respected leaders and functionaries of the Governor Dapo Abiodun-led administration under the guise of protesting the Chairmanship selection process is unwarranted and uncalled for.
“The APC leaders at Obafemi/Owode Local Government and at the state level should take note that the desperate efforts by these aggrieved aspirants are being sponsored by selfish and disgruntled elements to malign my character and drag the image of our esteemed party in the mud.
“The aggrieved aspirants should eschew all evil machinations and abide by the decision of the Party in respect of the Chairmanship selection of Obafemi/Owode Local Government”
He however call on his supporters to remain calm and intensify efforts towards ensuring landslide victory for the APC in the July 24, 2021 Local Government Election in Ogun State.
He also added that Party stakeholders in Obafemi/Owode Local Government should continue to support the administration of our dear Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, in his determination to transform Ogun State through grassroots development.
