Recall that during a recent press conference anchored by Dr Hezekiah Oyedepo, the Irepodun LGA APC Consultative forum, passed a vote of confidence on the Minister.
The Kwara South Elders Forum of the All Progressive Congress, APC, dissociated itself from the resolutions arrived at during the press conference and the subsequent release issued by the APC Consultative Forum of Irepodun Local Government Area. After an emergency meeting that was held in Ilorin at the residence of Chief Ayeni, a resolution contained in a statement signed by the Chairman, Chief J.B Ayeni and the Secretary, Engineer Jide US man, was released, the statement read in part.
“We wish to note that Kwara South is made up of seven local government areas and it is obviously larger than Irepodun LGA which constitutes less than 10% of the Senatorial district.
“The LGAs are Ifelodun, Oyun, Offa, Isin, Oke-ero, Ekiti and Irepodun,” the statement read.
The forum also debunked the claim by the consultative forum that the Minister was responsible for the party’s victory in Kwara State during the 2019 elections.
