PHOTOS: Heavy security presence at Osun APC secretariat ahead of primary election
There is heavy security presence at the secretariat of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun ahead of the party’s primary election.
The APC primary election is scheduled to hold on Saturday.
The security presence may not be unconnected to the clashes that have been recorded in parts of the state over leadership crisis.
There are currently two factions of the APC in Osun — the Ilerioluwa Group is the faction loyal to Gboyega Oyetola, the governor, while The Osun Progressives (TOP) has the backing of Rauf Aregbesola, minister of interior and former governor of the state.
Both factions have been at loggerheads over control of the state chapter of the party.
On Monday, Aregbesola expressed his support for the governorship bid of Moshood Adeoti, a former secretary to the state government (SSG), while Oyetola is seeking reelection.
The Osun governorship election is scheduled to hold on July 16, 2022.
