The governor\u2019s faction and the Unity Forum faction, which has members four times that of the governor\u2019s faction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur party leaders at the national level by force accepted those who are not qualified as party executives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEventually, what happened started from there. We are in court challenging to know the legally recognised executives of the party. The Unity Forum will certainly ensure that justice is done in the area of party congresses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is what we are challenging, the emergence of the current executives. They have to be true to themselves that but for Ajimobi, they will not be there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGovernor Ajimobi did what he did so that he could use them. He foisted on the party the people who will continue to do his bidding.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cClearly Ajimobi is a dictator, a betrayer; clearly everything you could think of. Now that he has gone, we have to rescue all of those people away from him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur lawyer unjustly terminated the cases in court. I have instructed lawyers from my chambers to apply for the revisit of those cases and I have all the support of all members of the Unity Forum to do that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are all waiting to collaborate in ensuring that we retrieve our party from predators.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will bring everybody on board, we will retrieve our party. We will start soonest by the grace of God,\u201d he said.\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adebayo Shittu, the Minister of Communication, has accused the Governor of Oyo state, Abiola Ajimobi of foisting \u2018weak\u2019 executives on the state chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
