Amosun About To Inflict More Pains On Dapo Abiodun & Members Of His Political Alliance!

Charles Oyelesi

If recent revelation made to societynow.ng is anything to go by, Ibikunle Amosun the Senator representing Ogun Central is about to inflict more pains on Governor Dapo Abiodun – and his co-travelers – while still suffering from the ”political blows” they just received.

Against all odds, Amosun’s loyalists currently occupy the federal appointments slots announced for Ogun state.

‘’The thing is that Amosun has cornered not just all those that have been announced but the ones that are yet to be announced, except for one which he is yet to finalize’’ societynow.ng learned.

Societynow.ng’s source disclosed that twenty- two (22) federal appointments have been earmarked for Ogun state and it appears Amosun who is a favorite of President Muhammadu Buhari has secured 21 for his loyalists.

‘’It was sealed in Saudi Arabia when Buhari and Amosun went for holy pilgrimage in Mecca’’ a source offered.

An arrangement which if it pans out would have very grave implication for Governor Abiodun and the political alliances that brought him to power.

Governor Abiodun is still at sea on how to cater for the ‘’ multiplied’’ interests that helped him secure victory in a fierce electoral fight with Adekunle Akinlade, the candidate of the Allied People’s Movement (APM) sponsored by Amosun.

Both Amosun and Abiodun are members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Akinlade was a member of the APC – a Federal House of Representatives member – before he crossed to the APM over refusal to give up his gubernatorial ambition.

Akinlade is currently challenging the credibility of the victory that made Abiodun the governor of Ogun State at the election tribunal.

Amosun is giving Akinlade much-needed backing as a Senator with access to the President.

Societynow.ng’s investigation revealed that APM sympathizers – including a candidate that contested on the platform of the party in the last general election – occupy all the federal appointments so far announced for Ogun state.

This development is causing a bit of disquiet in the camp of Abiodun and members of his political alliances.

‘’Their loyalists are already demoralized and angry with the federal appointments made so far, you can now imagine what would happen if the Amosun camp got all the other positions as well’’ a source pointed out.
