The contentious listing has the APC governorship candidate within the final Osun gubernatorial election, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji (AMBO), because the Director-General.
But in an announcement collectively signed by the APC State Publicity Secretary, Wole Adunola; Welfare Officer, Adesola Ayangbile; Assistant Organising Secretary, Rasheed Adeniji; and Ex-Officio Abiola Ololade in Osun, the listing appeared inconsistent with the sooner presidential directive reportedly naming Governor Ademola Adeleke because the Director-General of the Presidential Campaign Council in Osun.

“We subsequently reject the listing in its current type. Of explicit concern is the omission of a number of members of the State Working Committee who, in line with the relevant tips, are anticipated to be statutory members of the council.
“The exclusion of those recognised occasion officers raises critical issues about session, due course of, and respect for the occasion’s established management construction.
“Furthermore, the composition of the listing seems inconsistent with the sooner presidential directive reportedly naming Governor Ademola Adeleke because the Director-General of the Presidential Campaign Council in Osun State.
Following that directive, the governor promptly inaugurated a broad-based marketing campaign crew to drive the presidential marketing campaign throughout the state.
“It is, subsequently, unclear why a unique construction has now emerged with out enough clarification or alignment with the present association. However, if the newly launched listing is meant to function a Parliamentary Campaign Council relatively than the Presidential Campaign Council, its composition could be extra comprehensible. This distinction should be clearly established to keep away from confusion, duplication of duties, and pointless friction throughout the occasion’s marketing campaign construction.
“The State Executive Committee remains an integral part of the APC’s organisational framework and cannot be sidelined in the constitution of a state-wide campaign council. A successful campaign must be built on mutual respect, proper coordination, and the active involvement of legitimate party stakeholders,” the assertion learn partially.
It known as for a direct evaluate of the printed listing, with acceptable consultations involving related stakeholders, together with the National Secretary of the occasion, Senator Surajudeen Ajibola Basiru, and the State Director-General, to make sure correct alignment and efficient coordination.
“Our dedication to the APC and the success of our presidential candidate stays unwavering. However, occasion loyalty shouldn’t forestall constructive engagement when selections danger creating avoidable divisions and weakening our collective efforts.
“We urge the suitable occasion management at each state and nationwide ranges to deal with these issues immediately and be certain that the required corrections are made.
“Our place is evident: we’d like a marketing campaign council that respects occasion buildings, recognises official management, accommodates vital stakeholders, and unites all members in the direction of electoral victory.
“The process forward calls for unity, self-discipline, strategic coordination, and collective duty. No official stakeholder must be left behind.
“We remain fully committed to the success of our presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and the overall interests of the APC. However, the current composition of the PCC list must be reviewed to reflect the inclusiveness and institutional respect necessary for a united and formidable campaign,” the assertion added.
