The contentious record has the APC governorship candidate within the final Osun gubernatorial election, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji (AMBO), because the Director-General.

This distinction have to be clearly established to keep away from confusion, duplication of duties, and pointless friction inside the occasion’s marketing campaign construction.
“The State Executive Committee remains an integral part of the APC’s organisational framework and cannot be sidelined in the constitution of a state-wide campaign council. A successful campaign must be built on mutual respect, proper coordination, and the active involvement of legitimate party stakeholders,” the assertion learn partly.
It referred to as for a right away assessment of the revealed record, with acceptable consultations involving related stakeholders, together with the National Secretary of the occasion, Senator Surajudeen Ajibola Basiru, and the State Director-General, to make sure correct alignment and efficient coordination.
“Our dedication to the APC and the success of our presidential candidate stays unwavering. However, occasion loyalty mustn’t forestall constructive engagement when choices threat creating avoidable divisions and weakening our collective efforts.
“We urge the suitable occasion management at each state and nationwide ranges to handle these issues immediately and be certain that the mandatory corrections are made.
“Our place is obvious: we want a marketing campaign council that respects occasion buildings, recognises legit management, accommodates important stakeholders, and unites all members in the direction of electoral victory.
“The job forward calls for unity, self-discipline, strategic coordination, and collective duty. No legit stakeholder ought to be left behind.
