Amosun on dissolution of Ogun APC exco: We fear only God, Buhari, no one else

Amosun who took delivery of the endorsement letter from the governorship candidate of APM, Hon. Abdulkabir Adekunle Akinlade, at the APC Secretariat on Abiola Way, Abeokuta, the state capital, for onward transfer to Buhari, declared that the elected executive of the APC led by Chief Derin Adebiyi would serve its four-year term fully. Akinlade was accompanied to the APC secretariat by the Director-General of APM Campaign Committee. The governor added that he and his loyalists “only fear God and Buhari,” warning those he said were seeking a state to destroy the duo should count Ogun out of it, adding: “We are ready for them.” The National Working Committee (NWC) led by Adams Oshiomhole had last Wednesday dissolved the APC executives in Ogun and Imo states, but Adebiyi has since dismissed the dissolution as an exercise in “futility.” Amosun assured that the state belongs to President Buhari and that the people would vote massively for him come February 2019. He also hinted that he would soon flag off his senatorial campaign for the Ogun Central senatorial seat. Amosun said: “You know me by now. For me, I fear God and I respect people. So, it won’t be because we are afraid or we don’t want to talk. “Where we are now, what we should concentrate in doing is to let them know that here in Ogun State, this is the home of President Buhari and we must vote massively for him. “This is the home of APC. We must let them know that come February 16, 2019, by the benevolence of the Almighty Lord… “We are human. We are no God, and that is why we are telling them that in this coming election, in this Ogun State, it is whoever all of you (people) decide to back that will win the election. “So, the best way to answer them is through our action. And what is the action? We will use our votes to let them know who owns this Ogun State. “So, if they are looking for states to destroy them, they should not think of Ogun State. We are ready for them. “We don’t fear them. All of them put together, we don’t fear anybody. We fear God and we fear President Muhammadu Buhari. “We have decided to let them be for the sake of President Buhari. If not for the President, we know what to do. “Just ignore them. Don’t engage them for anything. Let us be focussed and redouble our efforts so that in the coming election, we are going to answer them with our votes. “I want to assure you that this executive that God has used you to put together, the executive will be there for the next four years. They will serve their term.” Meanwhile, the national body of APC has appointed a three-man caretaker committee for the party in Ogun State. They include Yemi Sanusi (Chairman), Ayo Olubori (Secretary) and Tunde Oladunjoye (Publicity Secretary).]]>
