Mr. Ayodele Asalu, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) in the state of Osun has claimed that the ruling All Progressives Congress, (APC) is the sponsor of division in the party to disallow it from focusing on winning the July 16th governorship election.
Asalu who is a stalwart of the party from Ejigbo Local Government Area; advised members of the PDP to be vigilant to stop the plan of APC from derailing the party.
In a statement he issued in Osogbo on Sunday and made available to newsmen, Asalu called on PDP members to reject the plots of APC agents working in their fold.
The PDP chieftain called for an end to the campaign of calumny targeted at a governorship aspirant in the party, stressing that the move may be a calculated attempt to weaken the PDP ahead of the election.
According to Asalu, those antagonizing Senator Ademola Adeleke are engaging in blackmail to stop him from contesting the party’s primary.
“Those who want our party to fail in the upcoming elections are busy spewing falsehoods against Senator Adeleke and igniting a crisis that will make it impossible for us to focus.”
