THE Director-General of Oranmiyan Worldwide, Mr Sodiq Olajide, has said that only President Bola Tinubu can resolve the crisis in the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State.

Olajide said elders of the party did not provide required leadership and objec vity to se le the crisis.

The DG in an interview with OSUN DEFENDER yesterday highlighted steps taken by the immediate past Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola to reconcile the party in the state.

According to Olajide, the former governor Adegboyega Oyetola led IleriOluwa Camp was not ready for reconcilia on and frustra ng every effort in that regard.

He said: “The way things are going now, the President is the last person who can resolve Osun APC crisis. If he says ‘stop’ today, it is done. What report has the Adewole Commi ee brought to the table? Now, this is 2023. 2026 is so close by.

“These people are not disposed to any form of reconcilia on. The elders haven’t made ma ers any be er. It’s unfortunate! The so-called leaders of our party have not done well.

“Whether anyone likes it or not, Aregbesola has that record in this state as the only governor who won elec ons on two straight consecuve terms. Even the winning margin in 2014 elecons remain boat-rocking – over 100,000 votes!

“How would one now say a two-term governor and former federal minister is not a stakeholder in his state of origin? He wasn’t invited to the Stakeholders’ Forum of 2021 – highest ranking among them.”

He assured the corps members of adequate security and enabling environment to u lize their poten al in the state.

“I want to assure you that my administra on will con nue to create an enabling and conducve environment for you to operate. We shall connue with the regular payment of your state allowance to those of you serving in the State instu ons and agencies”, he stated.

Earlier, the NYSC Coordinator in Osun, Mr Agbor Obim, had commended the corps members for their conduct in the course of the three weeks orienta on, parcularly the rapt a enon they gave to the Skill Acquisi on and Entrepreneurship Development Programme (SAED).

Obim advised them to avoid truancy and lateness at their Places of Primary Assignment (PPA), while urging them to be team players and a shining example by contribu ng to the success of the organiza on they are posted to.

The Coordinator also admonished them to serve their host communi es with patrio c zeal.

He thanked the Osun State Governor for donating 2000 ma resses to the camp, reroofing of the pavilion as well as the repain ng of the administra on block.
