Africa Press-Nigeria:

Crisis is currently rocking the Unity Forum, one of the political groups within the Ondo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) seeking to unseat Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu.

The Unity Forum headed by Alhaji Ali Olanusi had in March set up a seven-man Ad hoc committee headed by Senator Yele Omogunwa with a mandate to interviewing and collating report on all the governorship aspirants in the group.

It was for the Unity Forum to present a single aspirant against Governor Akeredolu at the party primaries.

Some members of the Unity Forum who tagged themselves Unity Group Foot Soldiers at a press briefing in Akure accused the committee members of collecting money from all the aspirants.

They alleged that some of the committee members were staunch supporters of some of the aspirants like Chief Olusola Oke and Chief Bukola Adetula.

Other allegations were that Alhaji Olanusi singlehanded picked all members of the committee with a view to producing a report that would favour a particular aspirant.

They further said Chief Olanusi collected the sum of N50m from a former Senator in Osun State to do the bidding of an aspirant they termed “not consistent politically”.
