Agemo also said that neither the faction nor the national leader was against the second term election of the state governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, urging him not to nurse any fear.

The factional Chairman who spoke with Vanguard in an exclusive interview in Abeokuta , shortly after the inaugural meeting of the executive in the state, described the crisis rocking the party as “an in-house misunderstanding”.

The party which is divided into two factions held parallel ward, local government and state Congresses which eventually produced two state executive councils during the just concluded Congresses.

Both Agemo and Chief Roqeeb Adeniji who were from Ogun West emerged chairmen of the two factions of the party in the state believed to be loyal to Osoba and Amosun.

Speaking on the crisis, the factional Chairman said “ nobody should be blamed for the crisis. I don’t believe there is crisis in the party, it is an in-house misunderstanding, it is not crisis per se ,but, misunderstanding between A and B.

“We are saying that let the governor take care of the governance and the party leaders take care of the party, so that you will have a lighter load of what to carry simple”, he said .

Speaking on the alleged role played by former governor of the state who is also the national leader of the party, Agemo said “I have not seen Chief Osoba playing adverse role, he has been quiet, gentle in his general disposition to what is going on in the party and he believes things would settle.

On Amosun’s second term bid, the factional chairman said, “Amosun can seek for second term, we are all together, we are in the same party, we can disagree to agree, that is human nature “, he said.
