The Director-General of Asiwaju Tinubu-Shettima Coalition for Good Governance, Adebayo Shittu, gave the advice, on Wednesday, at a press conference in Ibadan.
He said, “It will be recalled that Oyo State, as one of the foremost Yoruba states, had always been ruled by progressive parties under different names and colours.
“However, the state fell into bad times under the last administration of the late Ishaq Ajimobi. Unfortunately, he could not manage the APC primaries for Local Governments, State Assembly, governorship and National Assembly.
“Consequently, all party members who aspired for one position or the other and who were wrongly disenfranchised decided to leave the party. Apart from exiting the APC, most of them joined Seyi Makinde and the rival PDP to defeat the APC in the 2019 general election.”
He said that development saw the emergence of Makinde as the state governor without the needed psychological preparation or required political experience.
According to him, “The results of last Saturday’s presidential and National Assembly elections have shown clearly that our patriotic citizens of Oyo State have unanimously resolved to completely submit and support our great party, the APC, with almost half a million votes for our presidential candidate.”
