Former Ogun State Governor and Senator representing Ogun Central, Ibikunle Amosun, has posited that he will not support the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ogun State come 2023, saying he would only work for Asiwaju Bola Tinubu in the state.
The Ogun born politician made it known that he wouldn’t support any other candidates in the state apart from the presidential flag bearer of the party.
Amosun made this statement while featuring on a political programme BBC Yoruba on Monday.
Asked about how the crisis rocking the APC in Ogun and other states would not affect the chances of Tinubu at the poll, Amosun posited that all the factions within the Ogun APC are in support of Tinubu and will all work for his victory.
“For the presidential election, I can assure you, all the APC factions in Ogun are working for the presidential candidate of the APC. But for the governorship race, we are not together. I and my supporters are not supporting the APC,” he said.
Amosun explained that his followers who aspired for positions under the APC were not well treated in the primaries.
“I am not hiding it, for the presidential election, we are with the APC. But for the governorship, I am not doing it secretly, I will not support the APC,” he emphasised.
Asked to mention who he will support for governor in Ogun and the party, Amosun said: “It is Biyi Otegbeye. ADC is the party.”
