Otito Atikase, Senior Special
Assistant to Governor Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State on Political Affairs, has
accused the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Comrade
Adams Oshiomhole, and a leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, of being
behind the travails of his principal in the party.
The National Working Committee,
NWC, of the APC had reportedly suspended Governor Akeredolu for engaging in
anti-party activities after issuing him query.
However, the governor had in a
terse SMS denied being suspended or issued any query by the APC leadership.
But a statement issued yesterday
by Atikase accused Oshiomhole and Tinubu of using Governor Akeredolu as
opportunity cost for an alleged secret expansionist agenda they are purportedly
pursuing.
Atikase said: “Akeredolu is a
principled man who does not play politics with anything goes.
“He will not allow anything that
is not right to be done. Tinubu and Oshiomhole should not rule the party for
their expansionist and narrow agenda.
“All I can see is the aftermath
of the defeat Tinubu suffered when he sponsored Alliance for Democracy, AD,
against Akeredolu in 2016.
“What disciplinary action did the
party put in place? Oshiomhole, on the other hand, wanted his candidate to be
picked after him in Edo but Akeredolu supported the man on seat-Obaseki. Adams
was very angry so he became Chairman of the party to witch-hunt our Governor.
“All I know is that Ondo people
will determine who governs them. The God who brought Akeredolu to governance is
not dead but reigns supreme over them.”
