A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Tai Oguntayo, has described as strange and self-destructive the continuous attack by an aspirant, Engr. Kayode Ojo, against the very party on whose platform he intends to contest the forthcoming governorship primary election.

Featuring on Ṣé Ẹ Mọ́ BAO Dáadáa, a radio programme on Our People’s FM, Ado Ekiti, Dr. Oguntayo said it is unheard of for a member of a political party to openly condemn the same platform that gave him political relevance.

“I have never heard of such. Like someone under a spell, Kayode Ojo has been consistently attacking the APC, the same party he wants to contest under,” Oguntayo said.

He recalled that Ojo had written several petitions against the APC in the state and had even written petitions against the National Working Committee (NWC), accusing them of bias.

“He has petitioned the state chapter, he has petitioned the NWC, he has accused the party of bias, everything seems to be working against him because his approach is wrong. You don’t destroy the house you intend to live in,” he added.

Dr. Oguntayo urged party members and aspirants to play by the rules and respect the internal democratic processes already approved for the election.

He reaffirmed that the Ekiti APC governorship primary election will hold across the 177 wards in the state and will be conducted using the Option A4 direct primary system, where members will line up openly behind their preferred aspirants.

“The process is simple and transparent. It will take place in all wards, and members will openly queue behind their choice. There will be no room for manipulation or deceit,” he explained.

Dr. Oguntayo praised Governor Biodun Oyebanji for running an inclusive administration that has restored confidence among stakeholders and reunited party leaders across divides, urging members to consolidate on the peace already achieved under his leadership.
