A member of the party’s national caucus, who confided in one of our correspondents, also said in non-APC states, the party would recognise congresses endorsed by the highest political office holders in such states.
But another faction supported by the incumbent Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, held its congress at the MKO Abiola Stadium, where Chief Yemi Sanusi, emerged the chairman. In Osun State, parallel congresses were also held by groups loyal to the state Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola and his predecessor, Aregbesola.
Besides APC-controlled states, parallel executive councils also emerged in some states not controlled by the party. Ude on his part, stated, “I want to also commend in a special way the Dr Ben Nwoye-led executive and the Enugu state congress committee for conducting a free and fair election today.”
'In Ogun State,a faction loyal to a former Governor of the state, Senator Amosun, which held its congress at the palace of Alake of Egbaland,elected Chief Derin Adebiyi as the chairman'. 'Congress at the palace'...Our traditional rulers have been turned into political puppets.
Confused people. Confused party. Confused government.

Tension in Ogun as Abiodun, Amosun factions prepare for parallel APC congressesThe distance between both congresses grounds is about five kilometers. In my honest opinion, Amosun should be suspended from the APC for all the anti-party moves he made during the 2019 campaigns. His state was the only state PMB was embarrassed. Thanks God for Ogbęni Rauf Aręgbęsola for properly putting him in his place during that campaign.
