Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Oyo State chapter, Honourable Isaac Omodewu, has vowed to disunite the main opposition party in the state, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) ahead of the 2023 general elections.
He made this known on Monday while inaugurating chairmen of the party in all the local government areas of the state.
Omodewu, while boasting that he will break the PDP in the state into two said: “When I said I would divide the PDP ahead of 2023 elections in Oyo State, I mean it. This is politics and we understand it better. I won’t disclose the strategy to divide PDP but I can assure you that they can never remain united.”
The inauguration ceremony was held at the state secretariat of the party located on Molete-Oke-Ado road, Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.
While addressing the new chairmen, Omodewu, said: “While I congratulate all of you on your inauguration, I seek your understanding, cooperation and support in order to pilot the affairs of Oyo APC to electoral victories in 2023.
“I am assuring our party leaders, aspirants and their supporters that the era of impunity and imposition of candidates is over.
“Our administration shall create a level-playing field for members jostling for one position or the other in 2023 elections. We’re returning the party to the members; they will determine the faiths of all aspirants. No leader or group will be allowed to impose candidates on the party.”
Omodewu, further stated that: “Fellow members of our great party, the congresses have come and gone; there is no victor, no vanquished. It is time to get united and mobilised for the 2023 general elections. Though I am of Ajimobi political bloc, I belong to all forward-looking members of APC. My main tasks are to unite all members within the party and to lead APC to victories in the 2023 general elections.
“To be in charge of a very sophisticated political party like APC is a heavy responsibility; I assure our teeming members that it is a responsibility we will not take very lightly. I pledge to put in my best, God being on my side in order to justify the faith and the confidence all APC members have in me and other executives.”
