Alli raises alarm over attempt to thwart fourth republic from Oyo

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), in Oyo state, Oloye Sharafadeen Abiodun Alli, has raised an alarm over an alleged plan by some individuals to thwart the nation’s democracy from the state.

Alli disclosed that those concerned has concluded plans to use Oyo APC as the launch pad to derail the nation’s democracy, adding that “we shall resist them and also ensure that Nigeria moves in the right direction.”

Alli, a former secretary to Oyo state government who is the Ekefa Balogun of Ibadanland, stated this on Monday while speaking with newsmen in Ibadan on the crisis rocking the Oyo state chapter of the APC.

The former SSG who refused to mention names of those behind the dastard act blamed some key political players for the logjam in the party, saying their roles are senseless and uncalled for.

“We are suspecting some individuals are planning to thwart the current democracy from Oyo state. We won’t allow this. We are watching the roles of suspected members of opposition parties in the crisis rocking our party in Oyo state.

“We are on guard. We have done the necessary things to protect our democracy. Nigeria as a nation must not derail from the current political dispensation. There are some key political players who are to be blamed for the challenges we are facing in the party but we shall overcome these challenges soon. I therefore plead with our loyal party members to remain calm.

“We are now using this opportunity to warn those working against the interest of our party to be mindful and desist from this. Nigeria is bigger than any individual who is planing it’s downfall,” the former Odu’a Investment boss noted.
