Ondo Reformers group also lauded the leadership of the APC in Nigeria for believing in truth and justice, as well as its stand on a free, fair, and credible primaries to decide the party’s flagbearer for the November election.
The duo said, “At our February meeting on Tuesday, the stakeholders from the 18 local governments of Ondo State gathered in Akure to decide where the group would stake its position on the primary election to pick who will represent our party in the next election.
“While we are deeply concerned about the situation, we want to state equivocally that we are behind our leader and mentor, Chief Olusola Oke SAN.
