APC Suspends Female Governorship Aspirant, 4 Exco Members in Ondo

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ode-Aye Ward 1 of Okitipupa local government area in Ondo State has suspended Engr. Folake Omogoroye, a female governorship aspirant from the last primary election held on April 20, 2024.

Omogoroye joins the ranks of former governorship aspirants who have faced suspension by the party, following similar disciplinary action against Ondo South Senator, Jimoh Ibrahim.

In addition to Omogoroye, four ward executives have also been suspended. These include Ayesan Tunde, the Organising Secretary; Jemiken Seyi, Assistant Public Relations Officer; Adebayo Omobayo, Assistant Welfare Secretary; and Eweje Omotayo, Assistant Treasurer.

The suspension was detailed in a letter signed by the APC Ward Chairman, Akinsowola Awodele, along with twelve other executive members. The letter, made public on Monday evening, cited “anti-party activities and flagrant disobedience to the constituted authority of the party” as the reasons for the suspension.

Omogoroye had previously challenged the primary election results, alleging irregularities and seeking the cancellation of the governorship primary that resulted in Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa being named the party’s candidate.
