An Ibadan chief, Oloye Adegboyega Adegoke, has enjoined members of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State to shun politics of bitterness.
Adegoke, who is the Aare-Onibon Balogun of Ibadanland, noted that this is necessary in order for the party to win the forthcoming general elections in the state.
Adegoke, while speaking, appealed to members of the party to abide by the principle of all-inclusiveness and politics without violence or bitterness.
He made these disclosures in Ibadan while meeting with APC chairmen in nine local governments areas that make up Oyo South Senatorial District on Thursday.
Our correspondent gathered that the nine local governments that make up Oyo South are; Ibadan North, Ibadan North East, Ibadan North West, Ibadan South East, Ibadan South West, Ibarapa Central, Ibarapa East, Ibarapa North and Ido Local Government Areas.
Adegoke, while addressing the party chairmen, explained that the only way for the party to win these local government areas within the senatorial district and other senatorial districts is for the members to come together for the benefit of the party.
