The All Progressives Congress APC in Osun has withdrawn from the local government election scheduled for Saturday, February 22.
This was contained in a letter dated February 17, signed by the APC State Publicity Secretary, Alao Kamorudeen, and addressed to the Secretary of the State Independent Electoral Commission.
A copy of the letter obtained by the Newsmen today in Osogbo stated that the APC would not participate due to the February 10 Court of Appeal judgment, which reinstated its chairmen and councillors.
Recall there was a crisis between the APC and PDP over the Court of Appeal judgment regarding the sacked APC council chairmen and councillors.
While the PDP claimed that the February 10 judgment of the Court of Appeal, Akure, did not reinstate the sacked APC chairmen and councillors elected in 2022, the APC insisted on their return to local government secretariats.
