The Oyo state chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has told Governor Seyi Makinde to render public apology to the good people of the state for bringing the name of the state into public opprobrium.
The party in a statement by its Publicity Secretary, AbdulAzeez Olatunde, made available to insideoyo.com on Sunday said Governor Seyi Makinde should apologize because of “his senseless infraction into INEC assignment, by meddling to the issue of the appointment of Chief Returning Officer for the Ondo state Gubernatorial election”.
APC also congratulated Governor Rotimi Akeredolu and the Ondo APC family for winning the 2020 gubernatorial election.
The statement reads: “OYO STATE APC CONGRATULATE ARAKUNRIN ROTIMI AKEREDOLU(SAN) AND ONDO APC FAMILY FOR WINNING 2020 GUBERNATORIAL ELECTION.
“English Proverb says “One good turn deserves another”,No wonder the good people of SUNSHINE STATE defied the Rain and all the Reactionary agents to speak with their votes in an overwhelming manner to give another four years mandate to APC,in the GUBERNATORIAL ELECTION HELD ON SATURDAY 10th October 2020.
“The people of Ondo State had passed through HORRIFIC Governance Experience under PDP for twelve years (12 years) and had been surprised at the unparalleled Achievements and Developments under APC Government ably led by Gov Rotimi Akeredolu a.k.a AKETI for only four years (2016-2020) and as such would not allow their PROGRESS to be RETARDED again.
“On behalf of all the APC members in Oyo State, we wish Governor Oluwarotimi AKEREDOLU(SAN) another landmark achievements in his second term tenure.
“We also Congratulate Engr Ade Adetimehin led APC State Executives in Ondo State for this Phyrric Victory.

“On behalf of Chief Akin Oke led STATE EXECUTIVE OF APC, we pray that Almighty God grant Gov ROTIMI AKEREDOLU(SAN) the divine wisdom to build on the achievements of the first term to take ONDO STATE TO THE NEXT LEVEL,Amen.
“Finally, at this juncture, it is expedient for Gov Seyi Makinde to render PUBLIC APOLOGY to the Good people of Oyo State for bringing the name of Oyo State into PUBLIC OPPROBRIUM with his undignified and Senseless infraction into INEC assignment,by meddling to the issue of the appointment of CHIEF RETURNING OFFICER for the Ondo State Gubernatorial Election.
“The English idiom that says that, he who lives in a Glass House should not throw stone has reflected in the manners of Bashing and mudslinging that his Senseless Comment has attracted to the good people of Oyo State from home and abroad,honestly Gov Seyi Makinde is daily telling the whole world with his Public utterances that he won the 2019 Election fraudulently.”
