The Oyo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has issued a stern warning to its members against anti-party activities that could threaten the party’s chances in the 2027 elections.
In a statement released on Wednesday by the party’s Publicity Secretary, Olawale Sadare, the APC expressed concern over reports that two unnamed party leaders had recently praised Governor Seyi Makinde’s PDP-led administration, raising fears of secret alliances.
The party stressed that it would not tolerate any form of sabotage, disloyalty, or indiscipline from within, particularly from members allegedly acting out of selfish motives.
The party wondered why a chieftain would praise Makinde, accused of wasting enormous resources of the state on frivolities in the last six years.
It found the personalities’ conduct within the party as highly reprehensible, hence saying it has had enough dose of sabotage, conspiracy and other acts of disloyalty from supposed members.
“We are poised to wield the big stick against recalcitrant individuals whose goal is to see our party in disarray at every crucial time.
“The Olayide Abas-led state executive and other stakeholders have done so much for reconciliation,” it said.
The party said that any member trying to draw it back at a time when more eminent citizens were joining it in droves would be treated as an enemy of the state.
“We have done our diligence and established that those who parade themselves as APC chieftains and are still working for the opposition in recent times have no reason to engage in such shameful acts.
“But we would engage them as democrats since some schools of thought are of the opinion that they were either misinformed or misrepresented,” the party said.
It says that every member of the party is expected to key into the Project 2027, aimed at wholly delivering Oyo State to the APC in the next general election.
