The All Progressives Congress (APC) on Friday downplayed its defeat in the July 16 governorship election in Osun State, IgbereTV reports
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, Ademola Adeleke, was elected the Osun State governor after polling 403,371 votes to defeat the incumbent governor, Oyetola Adegboyega, who scored 375, 027 votes in the election.
Following the election, many APC supporters blamed the defeat on the feud between Oyetola and the Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, who was a former governor of the state.
Many also predicted that the defeat was a sign of what would befall the ruling party in the 2023 general elections.
However, the APC National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, who featured in a programme, Politics Today, said the party was poised to win the 2023 elections
