SEGUN Oni, deputy national chairman (South) of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has said dismissed as untrue the allegation that he was engaging in anti-party activities by meeting with Ayodele Fayose, Ekiti State governor, Gods will Akpabio, senate minority leader, and Senator Ahmed Makarfi, Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, caretaker committee chairman.
He said that those making the allegations are placing so much value on him, saying that if, however, Makarfi decides to visit him, he would welcome him.
Oni told journalists at the weekend in Ado-Ekiti, that he would resign from his position one month before the governorship primary of his party coming up early next year, to enable him participate as an aspirant.
Oni, who was apparently reacting to the mounting agitation that he should quit his position if he wishes to contest for the 2018 governorship election in the state, said that the APC constitution is clear about when he should resign as Deputy National Chairman of the party.
He said the APC constitution says he must resign one month before the party’s primary, adding that he would not disobey his party’s law.
He also expressed concern about the increasing rate of hate campaign against him.
