We hold Oke in high esteem, says Ondo APC

Oke’s supporters seek defection from APC over ‘neglect’

The Ondo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) yesterday faulted the report credited to a frontline chieftain of the party in the state, Chief Olusola Oke (SAN), and his followers that they had suffered humiliation and rejection in the party.
The party said it was surprised by the claim.
It added: “Chief Oke, a notable personality with vast political experience, is well respected by Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu and the APC executives in the state.”
APC noted that as a colleague in the legal profession, Akeredolu regards Oke as a worthy partner in the quest for the political and economic emancipation of Ondo State.
A statement by the party’s Publicity Secretary, Alex Kalejaye said: “It is expedient to state in a crystal clear language that the two leaders are both eager to see the development of the Sunshine State and are mostly in touch, particularly on matters that border on the wellbeing of the party and the state.
“At the level of the party, the State Chairman, Ade Adetimehin, has always displayed profound respect and appreciation for the political exploits and professional attainment of Chief Oke.
“Adetimehin believes very strongly that the fortune of APC in Ondo State would be greatly enhanced with the political experience of Oke as well as his followers at the party’s disposal.
“This is readily explained by the quick response and visit to Chief Oke’s country home in Okitipupa by the State Working Committee (SWC), led by Adetimehin, to encourage him over the recent loss of his elder brother.
“We want to appeal that Oke and his followers exercise some patience while the leader of the party in the state, Governor Akeredolu, looks into some of the issues raised with a view to addressing them.”
The statement said it needed all leaders to work together in order to strengthen the party and ensure a resounding victory for President Muhammadu Buhari and other APC candidates in next year’s general elections.
