The former governor, who is also a national leader of the  All Progressives Congress  was reported to have reached out to his loyalists in the APC  across the state  with a view to explaining  the true nature of the situation.

According to  a chieftain of the party and a close confidant of Osoba, a member representing Ifo/ Ewekoro Federal constituency,  Adekunle Adeyemi,  the meeting would hold at the private house of Chief Osoba in GRA, Ibara, Abeokuta.

The APC in the state has been embroiled in an internal wrangling which has led to its  polarisation into two factions.

The two factions are loyal  to both Osoba  and  Governor Amosun and had elected parallel executive councils from wards, local government and state levels during the recently concluded  congresses.

Adeyemi said the stakeholders’ meeting  would be used to inform the members of the party  the state of things in  the party.
