Osun APC Set To Receive More Than 10,000 PDP Defectors
….Osun State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola and National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Senator Iyiola Omisore will on Tuesday welcome 10,423 members of the Peoples Democratic Party into the ruling party.
,,,,,,,APC Chairman in the state, Prince Famodun Adegboyega and Chairman of the Defectors Care Committee, Timothy Owoeye confirmed this on Sunday.
The programme will hold at Freedom Park, Osogbo, the state capital.
Oyetola described the planned defection of the PDP members as the dawn of a new day for the APC.
,,,,,The governor urged indigenes and other residents of the state to unite for the common cause of lifting the state.
He said: “It’s the dawn of a new and happy day in Osun. We trust our citizens and residents to discern that it is finally time for Osun to stand together and do what is right and necessary to lift our state”
…..Famodun said the defectors have made the right choice for their political sojourn and future and in the interest of the state.
“We welcome the new members to APC, a place of peace and tranquillity,” he added.
,,,,,Also, Owoeye, who is also the Speaker of the State House of Assembly, described the “mass defection” as another historical feat by Oyetola.
……His words: “No other governor has been able to deplete the ranks of the opposition in one fell swoop like this. Governor Oyetola’s calm mien, focussed leadership and determination to change the way the government is run are some of the reasons given by the defectors for joining the APC.”.
