The Governor of Ogun state, Ibikunle Amosun, has reacted to reports that he is ready to dump APC for PDP
The governor, through the state Commissioner of Information and Strategy, Dayo Adeneye, said that the rumours of his defection were lies.
Reports had emerged that Amosun was unhappy with the state of the APC Primaries in Ogun state and his alleged disillusionment led him to reportedly quit the party.
This was not the case as the governor made clear in his statement.

“It is true that enormous pressure was brought to bear on Governor Amosun to move to another party, because of the glaring injustice meted out to some party members at the recent primaries, but the governor maintained his stand that he would not decamp, especially on account of President Muhammadu Buhari, whose judgment and sense of justice, as the leader of the party, he cherishes and values immensely,” the statement said.
“For those who know Amosun over the years, his struggles are usually not about his own person but equity, justice and fairness for all, especially the downtrodden masses.
“President Buhari represents this spirit and Amosun will stand by him and with him in any party at all times and at all costs”,
