The Secretary to the Osun State government, SSG, Alhaji Moshood Adeoti, who vied for the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship ticket in the just-concluded primary election of the party has resigned his appointment and dumped the party
The SSG’s actions may not be unconnected with the mode and pattern in which the APC primaries were conducted, as he and many other aspirants had vehemently opposed the direct system of primary election.
The APC had adopted a direct primary election system which enabled the participation of all members of the party in the election that led to the emergence of the Governor’s Chief of Staff, Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola as the party’s flag bearer.
Angered by this development, Adeoti, who withdrew from the exercise, proceeded to resign his membership of the APC in the state.
In the resignation letter duly signed by Adeoti, which he addressed to the Ward Chairman of APC, Gidigbo 2, Ward 12, Iwo Local Government Council Area, he said, “with gratitude to Almighty God, I hereby wish to notify you of my decision to resign my membership of the All Progressives Congress (APC)
“While thanking you and the entire membership of the party for your support while my membership lasted, I wish to reiterate my commitment to the progress of the state in whatever capacity I found myself in the future.”
The letter entitled: “Resignation Of My Membership of The All Progressives Congress (APC) was dated Saturday, July 21, 2018 and was copied the state chairman of the APC.
Meanwhile, reports have it that Adeoti has joined the Alliance Democratic Party and would be contesting the September 22 governorship on its platform.
