Ondo 2024: We’re not part of it, pro-Oke group distance self from support for Aiyedatiwa

Movement For Truth, a support group for Chief Olusola Oke during the April 20 All Progressives Congress governorship primary in Ondo State, has distance itself from the decision of Oke to collapse his political structure for Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa.

The group made this known in a statement signed by its leaders Dr Benson Enikuomehin, FCPA, Kayode Mogbojuri, Esq, Otunba Steve Omogbemi, while reacting to the decision taken by Oke.

The statement reads: “The decision of Chief Olusola Oke, SAN to collapse his political structure for his brother, Governor Lucky Ayedatiwa does not enjoy the endorsement of our team ” MOVEMENT FOR TRUTH”.

“Chief Olusola Oke SAN as a Nigerian citizen has his unfettered right to support whoever he desires in the forthcoming Ondo State Governorship election in November.

“Our organization worked for Chief Olusola Oke SAN, but will not allow itself to be led by the nose to support the candidature of Governor Ayedatiwa.

“Our team therefore dissociates itself from the decision taken by Chief Olusola Oke, SAN. While we respect his view, we also expect him to respect our position on the matter.

“We maintain that no primary election was held on April 20, 2024 by APC in Ondo State. We made it known to the whole world that it is only righteousness that can exalt a nation, _a fortiori_any organization or political party. We as a group cannot be speaking from the two sides of our mouths.

“Flowing from the above, we remain committed to what is just, fair, equitable and of sound mind in our pursuit of who should be the Governor of Ondo State.

“Now that Chief Olusola Oke SAN is out of the way, we shall chart a new course, but DEFINITELY NOT THE UNRIGHTEOUS MARMON.

“We shall address a Press Conference where our positions will be made categorical and unequivocal.”
