Deputy National Chairman (South), All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Abiola Ajimobi, has appointed former governor Adebayo Alao Akala to head a team to reconcile aggrieved members of the party in Oyo State.
In a statement by his media aide, Bolaji Tunji, Ajimobi added that the committee was set up intent on true reconciliation and the desire to right the wrongs of the past.
While noting the contribution of members to the successes of the party in the 2011 and 2015 election, he noted that members, in like manner, should also acknowledge their roles in the setback the party faced in the 2019 election.
He also apologised for mistakes made in the past, while urging aggrieved members to see his being deputy National Chairman as an opportunity to rebuild, re-invigorate and reposition the Oyo APC.
Ajimobi also enjoined party members to forgive one another and be guided by the need for selfless and meaningful service to humanity.
