Former governor of Ogun State, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, has dared the leadership of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) by leading the gubernatorial campaign rally of Mr. Biyi Otegbeye of the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Amosun, a chieftain of APC had vowed to work against the emergence of his erstwhile friend, Dapo Abiodun, who is seeking reelection into office for the second term.
News Contact Online noted that the duo of Amosun and Abiodun prior to the 2019 general elections were good friends, and parted ways for political reason.
The former governor who is currently the lawmaker representing Ogun Central Senatorial District, had on Wednesday, led the campaign team of Otegbeye, at the flag off of the ADC governorship campaign, held at the Ake Palace Ground, Abeokuta.
News Contact Online recalled that the former governor did same in 2019 by supporting the gubernatorial election of Hon. Adekunle Akinlade of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM).
Amosun arrived the campaign ground of the ADC at exactly 1.48 pm and was received amidst rousing welcome by supporters of the party.
The former governor was conspicuously absent during the campaign rally of the APC presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, held last week, in Abeokuta.
However,it was gathered that Amosun was absent at the rally because the rally coincided with his 65th birthday which was celebrated in grand style at his Abeokuta home.
