Osun 2018: We are irrevocable on Osun West, APC Elders Insist

The elders forum of the All Progressives Congress in Irewole Local Government Council of Osun state has called on the party to zone it governorship ticket to the Osun West Senatorial District.

This was contain in a communique issued at the end of the forum’s meeting held on Friday in Ikire and signed by its Chairman and Public Relations Officer,  Alhaji  Ayoade Olubowale and Dr.  Ajelere Ajewumi

It reads “That members of the Elders Forum, having felt the pulse of the entire party members as well as voters in the community, resolved to fully back the call that APC should pick its governorship candidate from Osun West Senatorial District.

That APC State Elders Forum (Igbimo Agba) should throw its weight behind Osun –West Senatorial District in the selection of the party’s Gubernatorial Candidate in the interest of justice, fair play, equity and party integrity.

That we took this decision having realised that the past Governors of the state had established a rotational pattern which began with Osun West (Gov Isiaka Adeleke 1 years 10 months only) followed by Osun Central (Gov Bisi Akande 4 years and Gov Olagunsoye Oyinlola 7 and a half years) and currently, Osun East (Gov Rauf Aregbesola 8 years). It is only fair that Osun West should be allowed to take its rightful turn”.

It added that the forum is committed to to the ideals of the APC and leadership of Governor Rauf Aregbesola leadership, hence, it decision to appeal for the zoning of the ticket to the district.
