APC Presidential Primaries: Group Berates Senator Daniel Over False Allegations Against Gov. Abiodun

 

…Calls for party sanctions against former governor

A group, Egba Lokan Youth Movement 2027, had berated the former of Ogun State and the senator representing Ogun East senatorial district at the National Assembly, Gbenga Daniel, for
leveling false allegations against the person of Governor Dapo Abiodun, in a media interview he granted recently.

Daniel had, in the interview, alleged that Governor Abiodun was still dagger drawn with him over his support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, during the APC presidential primaries, among other allegations.

But, the group in a statement by its Coordinator, Idowu Saheed Olusegun, on Wednesday, described Daniel’s allegations as concocted lies and feeble attempts to cover up his clandestine and tactical support he gave to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its candidates, particularly, the governorship candidate of the party, Ladi Adebutu, during the March 18 gubernatorial poll in the state.

 

The statement noted that the All Progressives Congress (APC) was still grappling with the anti party activities of the former governor who allegedly collected a sum of N2bn from the father of the PDP governorship candidate, Chief Kessington Adebutu, to scuttle the reelection bid of Governor Abiodun, when he spun another web of lies against the person of the incumbent governor.

It, however, expressed disappointment at the senator, who had since he got the party’s senatorial ticket, had engaged in surreptitious moves to work against the interest of the governor who is regarded as the leader of the party in the state.

 

While cautioning the former governor, otherwise known as OGD, to desist from his verbal attacks and character assassination spree against Governor Abiodun, the group, in the statement, also called on the Ogun APC to sanction the former governor appropriately, whom it declared as an agent provocateur within the APC.
