Ondo APC elders seek President Tinubu's intervention in party crisis

Speaking in Akure on Saturday, the group emphasized the necessity of the President's involvement to secure sufficient votes in the state for the 2027 presidential election. Aderemi Adebiyi, the group's coordinator in the South-West, stated that this intervention is crucial for safeguarding democratic governance and bolstering public trust in the Tinubu administration's Renewed Hope Agenda. Adebiyi clarified that their plea is driven by a genuine concern for the state's unity and stability, rather than personal interests, asserting that inaction would imply complicity.

He highlighted President Tinubu's consistent display of political wisdom in resolving complex party issues across Nigeria, urging him to utilize his experience to prevent division, eliminate hypocrisy, restore confidence among Ondo State party members, and ensure the Renewed Hope Agenda's ideals are upheld. Adebiyi also called upon Ondo State Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa to implement immediate corrective measures, including fostering more inclusive governance through broader consultation, initiating genuine reconciliation among aggrieved APC stakeholders, and conducting a thorough review of all political appointees' conduct.
