I’ve No plans To Dump APC ~ Lanlehin Following the strained relationship between Senator Olufemi Lanlehin, representing Oyo South in the National Assembly and Governor Abiola Ajimobi, the senator has said he had no intention of leaving the newly formed All Progressives Congress, APC. The comments of the senator were contained in a statement issued by a group, APC Youth Volunteer Forum, led by its state coordinator, Prince Rafiu Omotoye. He described as self-defeating and regrettable, the alleged way some people within the corridor of power in the state allegedly tried to“outdo one another in a bid to run down a reliable and proven leader of the progressives with a view to fighting the cause of a second term in office for the governor. He said: “We have watched with keen interest the scenario whereby some favour-seeking individuals, misuse and abuse their closeness to the Agodi Government House to embark on overt and covert moves to hijack the APC structure even before the proper take off of the activities of our new great party. “We condemn the attempts of some party renegades to blackmail a serving senator whose past and present contributions to democracy and party politics in the country cannot but be commended. “We recall that Senator Lanlehin was highly instrumental to the repositioning of the party in Oyo State before the progressives could match the antics of the PDP in the state prior to the 2011."
