Osun poll: APC mandates members to report in Osun

The All Progressives Congress has mandated all its elected members at state and national levels to converge on Osun State from Tuesday and remain in the state until Saturday’s gubernatorial election as a way of showing the party’s unalloyed support for its candidate and incumbent, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola.
In a statement issued in Osogbo on Monday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the directive also covers all political appointees in states under the control of the APC, especially Special Advisers and Commissioners.
Also expected in Osogbo are members of the party’s national executive committee and the national elders’ caucus.
The APC said it perceives the forthcoming election as a celebration of democracy and a harvest time for the party, whose candidate has worked so hard to implement his mandate and make life more abundant for the people of the state.
The party also called on its members in Osun State to be vigilant ahead of the poll, considering the myriad of desperate tactics being perfected by the PDP to reap where it did not sow.
