A group within the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo state, Movement for Good Governance, Thursday, asked President Bola Tinubu to be wary of two-faced politicians in the party now lobbying for appointment.
The group made this known in a statement jointly signed by its Coordinator, Comrade Segun Adewole and Secretary, Comrade Ronke Babalola, respectively made available to newsmen in Ibadan.
Movement for Good Governance in the statement alleged that the two-faced politicians worked against the interest of the party during the last polls only to now be lobbying their way to be appointed into positions.
It emphasised that ” now is the time to repay those who worked for the party”, and that President Tinubu should not neglect members of the party who worked consistently for his election and the party in the last elections.
“We want to appeal to our dear President and leader of our great party, APC, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to thread with caution in rewarding those who worked against the party during the last polls with appointments, to us people who did not work for the party do not deserve any reward but rather appointments should be for loyal party members who toiled day and night for the party”, it said.
The group added, ” In the case of Oyo State, both Barrister Akeem Agbaje, who though employed siddon look approach but did not work against the party and Engineer Oyedele Hakeem Alao, a loyal party member who stood for its success by supporting financially all the candidates of the party during the last elections, should first be rewarded by President Tinubu before any other.”
The group stressed that there is no doubt President Tinubu has started on a good footing with laudable policies to serve the interest of Nigerians, noting that the template of rewarding loyal party members should be applied in filling all the political appointments.
According to the group, in Oyo state “Those who are mounting the claim of APC members today worked against the party in the last elections” and that most of them do not deserve any appointment at the detriment of loyal party members.
