A former Minster of Communications, Barrister Adebayo Shittu has urged the general public to ignore the Oyo North All Progressives Congress Youth Leader, Mr Dauda Ajana, describing him as a jobless political hustler.
Shittu while responding to a statement credited to Ajana that Shittu belongs to the past in APC and has left the party said he still remains in the party.
He made this known in a statement personally signed by him and made available to insideoyo.com on Monday.
The statement read in full: “The suggestion by Dauda Ajana, a puppet of AJIMOBI’S SENACO FACTION OF OYO APC is simply stupid, baseless and ought to be ignored by right thinking members of our party. What or who could have driven me out of APC,of which i am a foundation member.
The truth is that I am not and would never belong to the SENACO FACTION of our Party. Rather, I belong to the UNITY FORUM FACTION of our Party; a faction which was formed to liberate ourselves from the oppression, marginalisation, dictatorship and undemocratic practices of former Governor Abiola Ajimobi who was leader of our Party in the State.
” If indeed, i had left APC, why would a delegation of Oyo APC Local Governments Chairmen’s Forum visit me in my Mokola, Ibadan Chambers to seek means of reconciliation of all the factions within Oyo APC, only a week ago. Of course, I gave them the pre- condition of return and consolidation of Justice and guaranteeing of sense of belonging if we of the Unity Forum are to forget the past.
“The general public is therefore urged to ignore the tantrums of Dauda Ajana, a jobless political hustler and his paymasters since he is completely inconsequential in the affairs and possible resolution of the crisis in Oyo APC.”
