APC caucus faults Oyetola’s LG caretaker committee, calms members


A caucus of the All Progressives Congress (APC), ‘The Osun Progressives’ (TOP), has faulted the local government caretaker committee appointed by Governor Adegboyega Oyetola, describing it “unacceptable.”


The group in a statement made available to newsmen by its Chairman, Adelowo Adebiyi, Friday, noted that some members of the party who are not loyal to Ileri-Oluwa group, were exempted from the list. 


However, TOP urged the aggrieved members of the party not to join another party but remain resolute in the pursuit of a virile, functional and well administered APC for the sake of good governance which only the progressives politicians could offer.


“While it is truly not possible for everyone to be appointed at the same time, the brazen exclusion of non members of the IleriOluwa Group was distastefully sufficient for anybody to protest.

“The APC caucus noted with displeasure, the deceitful manner in which majority of the members of the party were treated, saying such is unacceptable in any plural democracy.


“The TOP thus urged all members who were dissatisfied with the handling of the LG appointments to explore internal option and follow the lane where they will be treated with fairness, equity and justice denied them by the current leadership.”


The APC caucus maintained that the coming APC congress will afford them the opportunity to choose the best candidate to manage the party affairs with equity, fairness and justice. 


The TOP congratulate Governor Adegboyega Oyetola for having the courage to eventually make the appointments and those who make the list for their forbearance in waiting through the long time it took and wish them successful tenure of office.
