Again, Ekiti APC Suspends Two Members for Fraternising with Pro-Tinubu Group
The All Progressives Congress, Ekiti chapter, has suspended two members of the party for allegedly collaborating with the South West Agenda for 2023 (SWAGA), a political body that supports former Lagos State Governor Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s presidential bid.
Messrs Kayode Adetifa and Jide Oso are members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ward 9, Owaye quarters in Ayede Ekiti, Oye local government area of the state.
The fact that this happened just two months after the Chairman of Ward 8, Ado Ekiti Local Government, Mr. Clement Afolabi, was suspended for a similar offense was particularly concerning.
Dr. Kayode Fayemi, the governor of Ekiti State, is rumored to be eyeing the presidency.
The Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, is reportedly nursing presidential ambition.
The suspension contained in two separate letters, was signed by the ward executives, including: Abejide Sola (Chairman), Bamisayo Abigeal (Women Leader), Oladipo Adekunle (Youth Leader), Fayemi Apeke (Secretary), and Oloruntoba Bosede(Treasurer).
The letters dated May 31, 2021, stated : “We noted from your activities in the party in the recent past that you have been working against the unity of the party even to the extent of creating a parallel ward that you named “SWAGA” within the ward .
“You sent in confirmation of your action through Mr. Jide Oso, a former ward chairman on 16th May, 2021 to the ward that you have created another venue for this purpose .
