- Basiru warns betrayers of APC during elections of divine consequences, thanks supporters for standing with the party’s candidates
- Basiru calls out betrayers, leaves their fate to God, expresses gratitude to APC supporters and praises President Tinubu’s victory
Senator Ajibola Basiru, National Secretary of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has said that the wrath of God awaits those who benefited from and betrayed the party during the state’s recent general elections.
He spoke at the Freedom Park in Osogbo, the capital of Osun State, where party leaders and members gathered to show their support for him following his election as APC national secretary.
Remember that the APC lost the presidential and state House of Assembly elections in the state, which many blamed on anti-party activities by some key stakeholders in the state.
While thanking party members who supported President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and other APC candidates during the elections, Basiru urged them to remain steadfast and assured them that they would reap the benefits.
He said;
Those that had benefitted from the party and still betrayed us, we have handed over their matter to God. If you know you are tired of the party, leave, but don’t stay and still work against it. Those that betrayed us are now disappointed.
I want to thank all our supporters for standing with the party. APC garnered over 113,000 votes in Osun Central Senatorial District in the last election. President Bola Tinubu won Osun Central Senatorial district in spite of all the intimidation and harassment by the thugs.
I refuse to go to tribunal to challenge the result, God who created me knows his plan for my life and I give thanks to God. I appreciate those who stood by me especially in Osogbo and Olorunda. They proved to the people who claimed they owned Osogbo they are not the owners of Osogbo but the indigenes.
