To receive support of the disgruntled All Progressive Congress (APC) members in Ondo State in the forthcoming election, an aspirant, Chief Olusola Oke, says Governor Rotimi Akeredolu must initiate a reconciliation process within seven days.

Oke who took second position in the just concluded primaries is, however, optimistic APC would defeat the opposition Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) with a a wide margin if all groups within the party are united before the elections.

Oke spoke after a meeting with his campaign organisation, who was the Unity Forum choice for the primary election said.

He noted that the exercise was slanted to favour the Governor.

He said any reconciliation that would be acceptable must be initiated by Akeredolu but finalised with the participation of the national leadership of the APC.

According to him, “We resolved we remain members of the APC in our respective wards. As members we are interested in a united, cohesive APC where members will be treated as equals, where government patronages will no longer be sectional, where rights and privileges of members will be respected without hindrance.

“Our group insists that because of the experience in the past where promises were made and not kept, where people were given assurances but were denied.

“It is important that the reconciliation should be comprehensive and involved all the strata of our party.

“That is the only reconciliation that will instill confidence on our people.

“We acknowledge that our follower ship account for more than 20 percent of membership in Ondo State. We believe in APC.

“We are interested in the preservation of the governance of the APC subject to modification, adjustment, redirection and refocusing that will be contained in our charter of demand which will be presented to the Governor.

“Unless it is unavoidable, our members will not for now do anything that will be injurious to the overall interest of our party in the state.

“Whatever negotiations should be done on time, we are expecting that within the next seven days all reconciliation efforts, all terms and conditions would have been agreed upon.”
