Frustration Forced My Loyalists To APM – Amosun

Senator Ibikunle Amosun, the governor of Ogun State, yesterday, said his loyalists who recently joined the Allied Peoples Movement, (APM), were frustrated out of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The Governor said this while fielding questions from journalists during the flag off of his Senatorial campaign in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.
The governor who kick started the campaign from the palace of the Alake and Paramount Ruler of Egbaland, Oba Adedotun Aremu Gbadebo however said the APC will win the elections in Ogun State directly or indirectly.
According to him, those in the APM are also members of APC but were wronged by the leadership of the party which necessitated their defection.
Amosun who described the APM as a child of necessity said it would have been a great error not to allow the loyalists to ventilate their aspiration in another party.
He however described the movement as a good omen for President Muhammadu Buhari and himself who have been adopted as APM’s presidential and Ogun Central Senatorial candidates respectively.
Amosun said, “I am a member of APC but clearly. I told you before that some of our people that felt that they’ve not been fair to them, there is a form of injustice which all of you are aware of, for me, this is not what we prayed for, if anybody has told me that it is going to be like this, I will say ‘no’ but clearly as human being, God will show his way at any time to we ordinary mortals.
“When it happened, of course we have to shoulder on but we will not say people that have been hurt should not ventilate the hanger but in the final analysis, this is for the good of APC and I can say this anywhere because if we had not allowed them to go, they would have voted for another person and we will not even be in charge, we will not be in control.
