Crack In Ogun ADC As Lawmakers Disagree Over Impromptu Meeting

All may not be well with the Ogun State chapter of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as two State House of Assembly members boycotted a meeting convened by the lawmaker representing Yewa North and Imeko-Afon Federal Constituency, Hon. Jimoh Olaifa.
The meeting, which held at Ayetoro, Yewa North Local Government Area of the state, on Saturday, was shunned by the duo of Hon. Adegoke Awoso and Hon. Haruna Egungbohun.
Both lawmakers represent Isokan and Ketu State Constituencies of Yewa North local government respectively.
Our correspondent reports that ADC members, who refused to defect from the party were at the meeting with Olaifa.
The Tide’s source earlier reported that the governorship candidate of the party in the state, Gboyega Nasir Isiaka, had defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
It was also reported that lawmakers, who won their elections under the platform of the ADC, did not defect to the Dapo Abiodun faction of APC with Isiaka.
However, our correspondent gathered that Olaifa and the lawmaker representing Imeko-Afon State Constituency, Hon. Jemili Akingbade, had in a way deserted Isiaka, as they held a meeting with the Lagos West Senator, Olamilekan Adeola, allegedly to join forces with him.
Adeola, it was learnt, is going to Ogun State to contest in 2023, after failing to achieve similar ambition under former Governor Ibikunle Amosun in 2015 and 2019.
