Ondo 2020: There is gang up against us — APC spokesman

The All Progressives Congress (APC), in Ondo State says it has uncovered plans by some political parties to employ crude means to destroy the image of the party, ahead of the Oct. 10, gubernatorial polls.

Mr Alex Kalejaiye, the state Publicity Secretary of APC, made the allegation in a statement on Wednesday in Akure.

“The unholy alliance is informed by the fact that the political parties perceive APC as a common enemy because they are jittery over the rising profile of the ruling APC, on account of its performance.

“To achieve this, it was further gathered, the parties are to lay at the doorstep of the ruling party all forms of violence and acts of thuggery that will be carried out by their sponsored agents.

“As a responsible and responsive political organisation, the APC appreciates and it is committed to peaceful campaigns and rancour-free gubernatorial election.

“The party abhors anything that can inflict pains on the good people of the state,” Kalejaiye stated.

He tasked all security agencies in the state to be vigilant and ensure that perpetrators of any form of destructive acts, and violations of positive conducts were handled with all seriousness.

According to him, APC encourages other political parties to tow the path of peace, and caution their members to discard untoward attitude of hooliganism and recklessness in their operations.

“Political leaders will do well to avoid making inflammatory statements that are capable of spurring their followers in unjustifiable and uncivilised actions.

“The best way to win over the electorate is to sell programmes of various parties, convince them of ability to deliver on campaign promises, and appeal for their understanding and support,” he stated.

The APC spokesman, therefore, noted that the party would always crave for genuine development of the state, through massive infrastructure boosting and industrialisation.

He added that the current uncommon interventions in agriculture sector would be sustained.
