Bankole Taiwo, Abeokuta

The Deputy Governor of Ogun State, Engr. Mrs. Noimot Salako-Oyedele as well as the immediate past Governor of the State, Sen Ibikunle Amosun on Wednesday revalidated their membership of the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).

While Engr. Mrs. Noimot Salako-Oyedele, did her revalidation at GRA Ward 3, Ota in Ado-Odo/Ota local government area of the state, Sen Ibikunle Amosun did his revalidation at Ward 6, Itoko, Abeokuta South local government.

The Deputy governor has therefore urged party faithfuls to shun violence and  embrace peace in order to ensure the  exercise was devoid of all forms of rancor.

She told party members to shun all acts that will bring disorderliness and affect the  smooth running of the excercise.

The Deputy governor added that it was the responsibility of party members to mobilise as many people as possible for the exercise, noting that politics is a game of numbers and not a social club.

“The benefit of politics is not for people in power alone, it is for all of us and the only way to benefit and enjoy more of it is to become a bonafide registered member. Part of which include appointments,  I am glad to say Ogun west has benefitted in this present administration led by Prince Dapo Abiodun,” she said.

While imploring party members to troupe out enmass for the registration and revalidation, she urged those willing to join the party to do so now that the opportunity has been provided  for them before it closes on February 25th.

Speaking during the revalidation exercise, Sen Ibikunle Amosun also sued for peace assuring the party faithfuls that everyone of them would be captured in the exercise.

The former governor now representing Ogun Central at the Senate has therefore urged the party members to troop out  and register their names while they should also seize the opportunity to mobilise more people into the party.

While urging more support for the ruling APC government, Sen. Amosun said that President Muammadu Buhari remained committed to fighting the ravaging problem of insecurity across the country pleading with the people to eschew violence and avoid anything that could hurt the peace of the country.

In his short remark at the GRA Ota Ward 3 where the Deputy governor had revalidated her party membership, Chairman, Ogun State membership registration committee,  Hon. Ademorin Kuye, said the exercise was critical towards repositioning the party, urging party loyalists to key into the initiative as well as co-operate with the committee.

He added that being a registered party member would open doors of opportunities especially when it comes to appointment and other benefits.

In their separate remarks , Senator Kamal Odunsi and Ado-Odo/Ota local government Transition Chairman, Hon.  Wasiu Lawal and Chairman  APC Ogun West, Alhaji Muhammed Azeez urged party faithfuls and others who are willing to join APC to go and register and revalidate their membership, telling them to cooperate with  the committee, shun violence and embrace peace during the exercise to make it successful.
