Ondo Governorship Election: Another Crisis Looms In APC Over Deputy Gov. Slot by yns4real: 5:34am On Oct 03, 2016
By Dayo Johnson Akure

ANOTHER crisis is looming in the troubled All Progressives Congress, APC, in Ondo State as some notable leaders of the party kicked against the choice of Mr Agboola Ajayi as the running mate of the party’s candidate, Mr Rotimi Akeredolu, SAN. This is coming as one of the frontline aspirants in the September 3 governorship primaries, Olusola Oke dumped the APC for Alliance for Democracy, AD. Oke said he has the support of APC leaders to contest for the governorship election on the platform of the AD.

Meanwhile, APC leaders who kicked against Agboola as deputy governor include Hon Bola Ilori and a septuagenarian, Chief Samuel Ikujuni. They said the choice of Ajayi as the deputy governorship candidate would spell doom for the party if the leadership failed to substitute him before the deadline allowed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). They said: “Even when the NWC just upheld the fraudulent primaries that produced Akeredolu, the nexus of fraud in the party is trying to perpetrate another fraud to enforce the initial fraud. And while we are still on the fraudulent primaries through fake delegates and delegates’ list padding that produced Akeredolu as the candidate, another fraud is also being foisted on the party as the deputy governor. This is a man whose election was annulled by the courts for certificate forgery.” They said that Ajayi should not be allowed as the running mate because he is from Kiribo in Eseodo Local Government, the same town and Council Area of the mother of Akeredolu.

Why I left APC — OKE

Meanwhile, Oke said his “defection was necessitated by the injustice perpetrated by some leaders of the party over the primary election of the party.” Oke said: “I was the first person to raise alarm over the giant fraud in that primary. I was later vindicated by the appeal committee which ruled that the primary be cancelled and a new one conducted where a popular candidate will emerge. But Oyegun and his cabal proceeded to submit that name to the INEC thereby killing the dream and the vision of Ondo state people in APC to have a true change they have been yearning for.” Oke is a political harlot — APC Reacting to Oke’s defection to the Alliance for Democracy, AD, the APC described him as a “political harlot, who jumps around from one party to another for selfish interest.”

The party, however, assured its members across the state that the defection “will not affect the chances of the party in the November 26, governorship poll.” Labour leaders endorse Jegede to succeed Mimiko Similarly, Labour leaders in Ondo State have thrown their weight behind the candidature of the Mr Eyitayo Jegede.

The labour leaders expressed their confidence in the ability of Jegede to deliver on his electioneering campaign promises at a meeting the PDP standard-bearer held with head teachers across the state at the Labour House in Akure, the Ondo State capital at the weekend. Present at the meeting were representatives of head teachers across the state in their hundreds who used the forum to bare their minds on expectations from Mr Jegede if elected as Governor Mimiko’s successor. Speaking through its State Publicity Secretary, Abayomi Adesanya, the party said none of his core members defected along with him to AD.

“We are relieved that Oke has finally left our great party, we can now sleep with our two eyes closed. The fear of mole in our party has vanished, we can now hold political discussion without fear of betrayal. “This forthcoming elections will be a contest of integrity versus valueless images, we are sure that the people of Ondo State are watching and they ready to follow the path of integrity. We thank God that our party is finally free from pretenders, those who love their ambitions than the good people of Ondo State.”

Meanwhile, the candidate of the PDP in the state, Eyitayo Jegede, SAN, said that the party would defend her vote during the forthcoming election.

We all know Dayo Johnson of the OSRC to be a mimiko hand tool of causing confusion in the camp of the opposition through his media cooked up story.......where and when did Labour leaders arrived in their hundred to endorsed Jegede?.....Mimiko owes my lecturers at RUGIPO 9months salary,we went through hell before We could commence our examination last week wednesday....the lecturers were demanding for three months salary b4 any examination could be conducted but the school management who wish the student well,could only manage to pay 2months out of the 3months salary they demanded,same thing is happening in AAUA that is currently on lock down....here in Ondo state teachers are as poor as church rat....the last month my Mum.saw alert was in APril.....and Dayo Johnson is here cooking up story.....no civil servants in Ondo state is currently happy with the way mimiko has been running things and I can bet it that 85% of ondo civil servants will surely vote against mimiko and his anointed candidate come Nov.26.....Mimiko's case will be like that of Idris wada who is owing workers 4months salary b4 going into the gubernatorial race,thereby causing his huge loss......the truth is that PDP is not on ground in the state.....APC got everything to beat PDP come Nov.26......

Oke is a thief and desperado who joined the APC because of his inordinate ambition. The likes of Bola Ilori are disgruntled elements who is a nobody in the politics of Ondo state. Executive Secretary in Alimosho in Lagos, SA Environment in Osun, now he is making noise in my state. He should just keep quiet, pack his bag and join his desperate Oke in AD- a dead party. I have said it that many of these defectors to APC will leave once they don't get what they want. Oke has just proved me right

Oga when the campaigns start, ensure the song Mimiko sings to them is that he is not the only one owing salaries and let's see if he gets stoned or not. Are you sure you are from the learned Ondo state with the incoherent gibberish and abuses you are dishing out?

If APC wins Owo, the entire North and few other swing local governments in the central and south, APC may emerge winner.

Just watch and see, PDP will carry a distant 3rd in this election. Mimiko will not have any breathing space to to carry out any smart move.

The only reason PDP will even have any vote is just because their candidate is from Akure, and Akure people have not governed the state before and are very eager to produce the Governor.

The list of the delegates for the primary election
was manipulated by akeredolu hours before the
election,the list used was different from the one
buhari presented them, about 200 names of other
delegats were removed and filled with
Akeredolu's illegal delegates.


Olusegun Abraham didn't know this ,that was
why he congratulated Akeredolu immediately
after his win ,until he later got to know,that was
why he together with ,borrifice and Olusola oke
called for the cancellation of the election
After an APC panel was set to look at the
matter,upon investigation, they found out that
the election was manipulated and called for a re-
run.


But maybe Akeredolu has bribed Oyegun, he
declared that there will be no re-run election
instead,insisted that Akeredolu become the flag-
bearer.


This injustice has prompted Oke to defect to a
neutral party, the AD.


And personally, it should be a welcome
development, its high time we started giving
chances to the small political parties in Nigeria
rather than the APC and PDP who has looted and
is still looting our funds for years now.


Olusola Oke for governor

You are the one that is not making use of your brain. Are those other governors facing a critical election??

It's quite impossible for a governor/his party owing loads of salary and pension to go into a gubernatorial election and succeeds.

you forgot larger % of total votes come from the riverine area of the state, which is Olusola Oke's strong hold.... Even the % of votes from north is not up to Central..... so forget about APC winnning the whole NORTH, Only OWO is outrightly sure for them.. others will be battle ground

my people abeg ,we are pretty sure that neither PDP nor APC can take us to the promise land as we are already seeing, the Governor in power, Mimiko has not paid salaries for months and if the governor-elect comes from PDP ,he might surely continue in that manner or may never pay the unpaid salaries claiming it was not owed during his reign

And as for the APC, the national economic quagmire and recession speaks for itself

Now the AD, not much can be said about it but this was Awolowo's party.

The AD is the one only neutral here, my people , I'll advice we collectively vote for the AD as we are tired of this propagandists and looters

Do you think we are still the era where they will be bringing manipulated results from the Riverine area of the state? Most of those heavy results from that side are rigged votes. There won't be any room for that.

You can only rig when you have the tactical support of the Federal. The FG this time around is also an interested party in the election and will not allow any rigged votes from the Riverine area.

How many local governments are even in the core riverine area? I mean core Ori Omi

Oke has stretched himself thin with that competitive primary election and won't have the funds for mobilisation. He may just manage to win his South Senatorial District and that is if he has some good money bags backing him.
