Politics Osun APC issues are minor, Omisore will not leave — Adegoke.
The All Progressives Congress, APC, candidate for Osun Central Senatorial District, Kunle Rasheed Adegoke, has dismissed speculation surrounding the political future of former Osun State Deputy Governor and ex-national secretary of the APC, Senator Iyiola Omisore, saying he was convinced the veteran politician would remain in the party.
Adegoke made the remarks Friday while featuring on the Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ, Osun State Council Guest Platform, where he addressed questions on the state of the APC and preparations for future elections.
“Senator Iyiola Omisore will not move away from the APC. He is a wise politician, and I respect his sense of politicking. He won’t go that way,” he said.
Adegoke argued that the APC remained firmly rooted in the Osun East Senatorial District, making it unlikely that Omisore’s supporters would consider leaving the party.
“If you note, the whole of Osun East Senatorial District is with the APC. I am sure none of Omisore’s followers will want to leave where they are comfortable for another party,” he said.
Adegoke also dismissed concerns over internal disagreements within the party, describing them as minor issues that will not affect its electoral prospects.
According to him, “disagreements are not peculiar to the APC. Every political party experiences internal disputes from time to time.
“In every political party, there would be disagreement. We have our own fair share of internal disputes, but it is manageable.”
He stated that members expressing dissatisfaction with the party were merely giving advance notice of their concerns and would continue to be engaged by the leadership.
“People resigning are only giving us advance notice. They will still be engaged. The party, as we are, is already discussing the sources of their concerns,” he added.
The APC chieftain contrasted his party’s situation with that of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, which he claimed was no longer a formidable force in Osun State.

The APC chieftain contrasted his party’s situation with that of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, which he claimed was no longer a formidable force in Osun State.
“Unlike other parties, like the PDP, which is not on the ground anymore, they have all dissolved into Accord,” he said.
Adegoke expressed confidence in the APC’s chances of success, arguing that the opposition had failed to manage its internal affairs effectively.
“Our chances of success are confident. The PDP could not manage its own party, and they want to win the state. The people who assisted them to win the 2022 election are now in the APC,” he said.
He maintained that the disagreements within the APC were insignificant and would not undermine the party’s electoral fortunes.
“Our internal disagreements are minor and minute, and they will not affect our chances,” Adegoke stated.
