PRESSURE GROUP THREATENS TO SUPPORT SANCTION OF AMOSUN OVER DISLOYALTY TO ALL PROGRESSIVES CONGRESS
The body also noted that some of these serving appointees are contestants under the banner of the opposition party, Allied Peoples Movement (APM), and refused to resign their appointments, with a call on them to resign their appointments without further delay.
Penpushing further reports that, the group said it was “disgustingly treacherous, fraudulent and horrendous for people appointed into privileged positions on the basis of being members of the All Progressives Congress(APC), to without blinking, crossed to another party and still hope to retain their positions in the administration.”
“It has become pertinent to call on Commissioners, Special Advisers, Chairmen of Statutory Commissions and other State Government appointees, whose names have appeared either as members of the Governorship campaign of the APM, its officers or candidates to resign forthwith”, the statement reads
“Though we are aware that these appointees were coerced by the Governor in his desperation to achieve his moribund bid to force a successor on the good people of Ogun, we urge the appointees to save whatever is left of their honour and family names by resigning their current appointments which they got on the platter of being APC members and as beneficiaries of APC electoral victory of 2015”, the group said.
The statement described the action of these appointees as a “shameful act of indiscipline and disloyalty to the party who appointed them out of thousands of others who are even more qualified. There is no way they can eat their cake and still have it”.
