OSUN2014: Why APC Decided To Relocate Its National Secretariat To Osogbo By 4th August – National Chairman

As part of the final leg of the preparations for the governorship poll in the State of Osun, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief John Odigie-Oyegun and top leaders of the party will from Monday relocate to Osogbo, the state capital. The relocation of APC leaders was contained in a statement issued in Abuja by the APC National Chairman, Odigie-Oyegun.
The statement reads: “This is to inform the general public and millions of our dear members, and supporters that as from 4th August 2014, the National Secretariat of our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) – the Change Agent – will relocate to Osogbo, the State of Osun, until after the 9th August, 2014 gubernatorial election. The relocation to Osogbo is in deference to an ancient African proverb which states that rats cannot eat the fish
of the man who is awake and watchful.”
“Hence APC leadership wishes to reassure our millions of members, supporters and compatriots, that we shall keep awake to guide and protect our mandate. This also serves as notice to all state chairmen of the 36 States and the Federal Capital Territory to attend the final public rally of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osogbo on Tuesday, 5th and the subsequent meeting with the National Working Committee on Wednesday, 6th August 2014, after the grand rally on the 5th.”
“I use this opportunity to salute the courage of the good people of Osun State for their courage and steadfastness in the face of intimidation and militarization of the state. I appeal to our dear compatriots in the State of Osun to ignore all manner of provocation and turn out massively to vote for Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola to continue his good works, and clean government, in his second term.”
