Ahead of the election primaries of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State has assured party members in the state that APC under his leadership would be fair to all irrespective of misdemeanor of any party member in the past.
Abiodun gave this assurance when he received the immediate past Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Jide Ojuko and his supporters who joined the mainstream of the party led by the governor, at the Presidential Lodge, Abeokuta.
The governor posited that since the returnees retraced their steps, they would be reintegrated into the party.
He said:
“I know that you fought for a cause and if we are fighting for a purposeful leadership then we understand. But there is no need for the fight to continue since the election had been concluded and a governor emerged. I am not going to be the governor of APC alone, but the governor to those who did not vote for me.
“Your coming to join us was not by compulsion, it is out of your conviction. This action of yours is a vote of confidence of what we are doing. It is a vote of endorsement. This is a day of celebration for all of us in the APC. We may have our differences, but the important thing is for us to put those differences aside and work for the good of the party and the state.
“Let me assure you that as your leader and on behalf of the party, since you strayed and decided to come, you are welcome. I commend your sense of loyalty and determination to come back home. We welcome you with open arms. Please, integrate yourself and contribute to the success of the partyâ€
