The Ogun State chapter of All Progressives Congress, APC, has said that the Monday's verdict of the Appeal court sitting in Ibadan affirming the victory of Prince Dapo Abiodun as the winner of March 9 governorship election is a reaffirmation of the divine mandate given to the Party and the Governor
Addressing journalists at the Party Secretariat in Abeokuta after the Appeal Court verdict, the Publicity Secretary of APC Caretaker committee in the state, Tunde Oladunjoye noted that, Abiodun believes in politics without bitterness, calling on well-meaning people to collaborate with the governor as he continues with his inclusive administration.
It could be recalled that the Allied Peoples Movement governorship candidate in the March 9 governorship election, Abdulkabir Abiodun Akinlade had challenged the victory of Prince Dapo Abiodun of APC.
Reacting to the appeal court ruling, the party urged the petitioners, Hon. Adekunle Akinlade and his party, APM to join hands with Governor Dapo Abiodun if genuinely they desire peace and progress of the State.
Oladunjoye said, "the party believes that the latest judgement from the Appeal Court will put an end to the side distractions of this budding political association touting unmerited mandate".
He assured that the unconditional support of the people will not be taken for granted.
He said: “In line with the campaign promise of the governor, the administration has been running and will continue to run an inclusive government. It therefore behoves politicians and non-politicians who genuinely desire the peace and progress of our dear state to join hands with our governor, who believes in politics without bitterness.
“For the first time, we are running a government that is not winners take all. It is not a government of me, my family and my friends. It has been a government of inclusiveness and it has really been very inclusive.”
