The Chairman of the Local Government Congress Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State, Gbenga Elegbeleye, has stated that his committee was not aware of any parallel congress held anywhere across the state.
Elegbeleye, who said on his arrival into the state that no one notified him or his committee members of any dissenting voice against consensus, added that his committee complied with the protocols and guidelines as spelt out by the national headquarters of the party.
Stating this on Monday during a press conference at the Osun APC secretariat in Osogbo, Elegbeleye maintained that nobody informed him and his group of objections to consensus arrangements. He said they only saw it on social media like others did.
The committee chairman displayed the list of all elected party officials, stating that he will be submitting it to the national headquarters of the party.
When asked about the names announced by The Osun Progressives, the group loyal to former Governor Rauf Aregbesola, Elegbeleye said, “the constitution of our party only recognises the APC and not any group within the party.
“I know nothing about that and I think if anyone has objections, they should come to the secretariat of the APC and not go online or on air to display such.”
