Those who believe in me followed me to the APC. It is my personal decision to be a politician and when I see that issues are not going to favour me and the people I represent, I took a good decision”.“Let me remind our people that it was the removal of Oyinlola as secretary that led to the movement of those PDP governors that left the party for the APC. I warned them-the PDP! I made a press statement on the 13th of November 2013 where I told them pointedly that if I don’t return as secretary of the party, the PDP would stop being a ruling party.“And I said the party would tear from top to bottom. God is answering the prayer now. After I made that statement, the next thing I heard from Chief Babatope was that Oyinlola was playing God. I told them that I was not playing God; that they are the ones that have cheated the son of God and he will fight for me. God is doing that happily.READ ALSO: Sheriff working for El-Rufai, Amaechi – Northern youthsMeanwhile, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has called on the PDP to tender an unreserved apologyto Nigerians for their disastrous 16-year rule that has left the people pauperised and traumatised.The media aide to the chairman of the APC, Segun Dipe, made the call in a statement in Abuja on Monday, August 22.
