No factions in Ondo APC – Spokesman

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State says there are no factions in the party.

Mr Steve Otaloro, the Director of Media and Publicity of the party in the state, said this in a statement issued in Akure on Wednseday.

Our correspondent reports that some stakeholders led by Sen. Ajayi Boroffice had on Nov. 27 passed a vote of confidence on the Isaac Kekemeke-led State Executive Committee (SEC).

The group had also reiterated its support for the APC-led Federal Government and the State Government.

But Otaloro in the statement said: “It has come to our notice that some members of our party who indulged in anti-party activities during the 2016 gubernatorial election in the state have regrouped to launch themselves back to limelight through all crooked means.

“Nevertheless, there are no factions in our party.

“We are one and our party chairman is Mr Ade Adetimehin and our leader is Arakurin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, the executive governor of Ondo State who was a year ago overwhelmingly elected by the good people of Ondo State under the banner of APC.”

Mr Kayode Fakuyi, the media aide to Boroffice, however, said the senator was not ready to join issues with anyone.
