The All Progressives Congress, APC, Presidential Campaign Committee, PCC, has claimed that it does not have a standing arrangement with Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, over the next governorship race.
During an interview with media in Ibadan on Wednesday, Nike Ajagbe, a member of the committee, said that there was no agreement between the President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and Makinde.
Responding to the news of the meeting between the state’s disgruntled PDP candidates and the governor, Ajagbe stated that Tinubu was a party man who could not joke with the success of his APC across the country, particularly in the South-West.
which is regarded as his stronghold.
”It was in the campaign committee programme to visit opposition governors whenever they were in their state for the campaign. The visit had nothing to do with the endorsement of the Makinde.”
Governor Seyi Makinde is said to have disclosed to the aggrieved candidates, who lost the National Assembly election to the opposition party APC, that he had agreed with the president elect to defect to the APC after the election, which Tinubu supported.
