Dr Abdulazeez Olatunde, Publicity Secretary, All Progressives Congress in Oyo State, has said that former governor Abiola Ajimobi would resume duty as the acting National Chairman of the party soon.
The Publicity Secretary of APC spoke in a telephone interview, on Saturday.
According to him, the rumour that went viral online that there was crisis in the party over the decision of the National Working Committe of the APC to appoint Hilliard Eta to act on behalf of the sick is false.
He said, “By saying that I hinted that Senator Ajimobi would resume duty as the acting National Chairman of APC on Monday or next week, they (the online news platforms) quoted me out of context. That was not what I said.
“What I said was that Ajimobi is the acting chairman. For one reason or the other, he is not available now. He is going to be available very soon; it could be next week, upper week or anytime. When he is okay, he is going to resume.
“There is no crisis in our party. Etta is the one acting on behalf of our leader, Abiola Ajimobi.
“By the grace of God, you know the ultimate power belongs to God, but I can assure you that our leader, Senator Abiola Ajimobi, will resume office as the acting National Chairman very soon. He is recuperating.”
News of Ajimobi’s death went viral on Thursday, however, it was later debunked by Bolaji Tunji, his Media Aide.
