. 


The chairmanship aspirant of the All Progressives  Congress(APC) in Oyo State, Engineer Adewale Adeoye has said that APC  still remains the only political party that can guarantee 

the unity of Nigeria.


Engineer  Adeoye who served as the Commissioner for Water  Resources during the Late Senator Isiaka Abiola Ajimobi, also pointed out that APC is also  a political party where  true democracy  and due process  are followed with profound ideologies.


He made these declarations  during  a meeting with some of the youths  in Oyo State,  who paid him a visit   at his Ibarapa residence   in  support of his aspiration to  lead the APC  in Oyo State as its  next chairman.


Engineer  Adeoye said Nigeria today, needs a political party like the APC to mend whatever  differences  that may have existed in the past, in the country, especially  the south West, saying "it is in the APC where the truth are told and where dividends of democracy  are always secured, sustained, guaranteed  and provided for the people without  deceit.  


He told the youths  that his quest to lead the APC  in Oyo state, was borne out of  the fact that the party at this juncture needs a vibrant  leader who is a bridge builder and who is ready to  be committed  to making  it a vibrant party.


He said, such bridge builder should be a person that. is  acceptable among  the youths and the elders and who is also ready to use his wealth  of experience  and contacts,  across board, to cement whatever  must have been regarded, as cracks in the party. 


He argued that as the chairman of the  party in Oyo State,  he would use his wealth of experience which he has acquired  since the inception of this on- going democracy in 1999, to unite members  and bring back the party  to it glorious  days  when it was  an enviable  one.


He further said that whatever must have gone wrong, which has made the party to drift  would be put right through his leadership as the chairman.


Engineer  Adeoye, who was the Special Assisrant to the Deputy  Governor in Osun State, between  1999 and 2003 and as well  former member,  the APC  interim State executive in 2014, said that as   a Progressive, he  would follow the legacies and  principles laid down by  his mentors in politics  especially that of the late Sage,  Chief  Obafemi Awolowo,  Chief Bola Ige,  Pa Adekunle Ajasin, Chief Bisi Onabanjo and Alhaji Lamidi  Adesina, who specifically laid the foundation of the APC in Oyo State.


The former Deputy chairman  of the Defunct All Nigerian Peoples Party  (ANPP) in Oyo State (2009-2013), said "I have been the follower of  these great progressives and  I have all my political life, remained in the fold and I will remain in there and never depart from being a true progressive"


Engineer Adeoye who has been on the board of Management.of  the Federal Teaching Hospital Gombe, since 2017 till date,  said that he has been going round  members, youths and elders to make them see reasons why APC in Oyo State should not  decengrate because,  it still  remains the hope of the ordinary  people as  no other political party  has served  Oyo people better, than the progressives, especially  the APC, "the records are  there  and very clear for everyone  to see"


He argued "as the  Chairman,  I will do everything  possible to bring the party back to the heart  of the people.

I am committed  to the party and I think  this is the right  time for someone like me who is tested, trusted and  with  good political background   should come out to lead  and salvage the party in  Oyo State. He further  argued.


 In his response the the spokes person of the youth,  Jide Ajibola said that they came to show their support because they believed he has the the capacity  to lead the party to an enviable position  that would make the party win back Oyo State, come 2023.


He said that they have looked through Engineer  Adeoye's  records and found out that he is a person capable  of handling the party and who can be trusted  by both the youths and the elders.

"We come to identify with you because you have always remain a bridge builder on whose hand the party can rest  on, for progress.  We also believed  that you are the one needed, who could as well, end the rancour  and acrimony going on, in Oyo State APC"
