Osoba’s Son Olumide Gets Back Ogun APC Reps Ticket In Moves That Further Demystifies Gov Amosun
Olumide, the son of former governor Olusegun Osoba has regained one of the All Progressives Congress federal House of Representatives ticket in Ogun state.
Olumide returns to reckoning in the race to become a Federal Lawmaker in a manner that further demystifies the political might of Governor Ibikunle Amosun societynow.ng learned.
Amosun had knocked out Olumide and given the party ticket at stake to one of his loyalists.
REAL REASON OSOBA’S SON OLUMIDE FAILED TO GET APC REPS TICKET
Societynow.ng gathered that Olumide’s crime was voicing out against planned imposition by Amosun in the name of giving party tickets to consensus candidates.
Olumide was one of the “consensus” candidates but the son of former governor Osoba voiced out against the arrangement and insisted on a party primary to determine candidates.
WHY OLUMIDE OSOBA OPTED TO BATTLE 4 CONTENDERS FOR REPS TICKET THAN BECOME CONSENSUS CANDIDATE
The primary organized by the party structure loyal to Amosun dumped out Olumide from the race and gave the House of Representatives ticket to another person.
But that arrangement is changed societynow.ng confirmed.
The national leadership of the party has upturned the verdict and given the ticket back to Olumide.
This development comes at a time governor Amosun is smarting from the pains of the inability of keeping his vow to prevent estranged friend Dapo Abiodun from becoming the gubernatorial candidate of the APC in Ogun state.
Despite all Amosun’s political play and desperate antics, Abiodun remains the APC gubernatorial candidate in a manner that has left the governor with a “bloody nose” politically.
“And now Olumide has regained the House of Representatives ticket against the earnest wish of Amosun to compound the pains for the governor” societynow.ng learned.
