Uncovering the APC's Demands for Adeleke's Defection
Adeleke's Effort to Join Our Party Falls Through - APC's Perspective
Governor Ademola Adeleke's rumored switch from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) wasn't just a wild rumor, claims the Director of Media and Information of the APC in Osun, Kola Olabisi.
In a fiery statement, Olabisi exposed Governor Adeleke's supposed secret dealings with the APC, denying the governor's claim that he never tried to leave the PDP for the APC.
According to Olabisi, Adeleke was presented with a condition: he would not be granted an automatic ticket for the governorship election under the APC and would have to compete like any other aspirant.
The APC spokesperson also accused Adeleke of deceiving the PDP stakeholders by claiming the rumors of his imminent defection were merely "fake news" emanating from those threatened by his "extra-ordinary performance."
Olabisi expressed surprise at the governor's dishonesty in withholding information about his failed defection attempts, particularly his secret meeting with Chief Bisi Akande at his Ibadan residence.
He further questioned why Adeleke would consider defecting to the APC if he was so confident in his popularity within the PDP. The governor's questionable political prowess has raised eyebrows due to his shortcomings, which have proven to be a significant setback for the state's development.
Olabisi commended the APC supporters for sensing the potential chaos that Adeleke's defection would cause and for blocking it. He urged Adeleke to come clean about his plans or face exposure of his numerous failed attempts to join the APC.
In related news, Atiku Abdulahad, former Vice President and PDP chieftain, has been suggested as the key to restoring unity within the PDP. Meanwhile, speculations about defections continue, with Alex Otti, Mbah, and others reportedly reconsidering their move to the APC. Amid these shifting alliances, one thing remains uncertain: the exact conditions the APC's national leadership imposed on Governor Adeleke for his potential defection.
