Re-Protests Rock Lagos APC

Our attention has been drawn to the news going round about a purported protest rocking Lagos APC.

As much as this sensational piece of news might throw the opposition camp into premature celebration, the incident was a storm in a tea cup.

Since the resumption of office of the State Chairman , Hon. Cornelius Ojelabi, he has continuously sought the peaceful co-existence of all party members in every cradle and cranny of the state.

It is on record that he has , at various times, been able to successfully reconcile warring party members across board to ensure cohesion.

The incident today was about a meeting conveyed to reconcile the different factions of the party in Alimosho local government area which was unfortunately infiltrated by uninvited thugs with ulterior motives.

We appreciate the security agencies for promptly bringing the situation under control.

The victory of the progressives in Lagos State since the inception of this dispensation has been due to life changing policies by our responsive and responsible government and strict compliance with party discipline.

Lagos State APC has a time tested mechanism for settling disputes and will not hesitate to wield the big stick if need be.

The sacrifices of the founding fathers of the party to engender democracy cannot be sacrificed on the altar of indiscipline and intolerance.

We acknowledge protests as an integral part of democracy, but it has to be within acceptable norms without infringing on the rights of others.

Hon. Seye Oladejo
Lagos APC Spokesman.
