Three-time councillor in Sagamu Native Authorities, Hon Adekunle Folarin, has apologised to the management of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ogun State for the incidents resulting in his suspension, urging the occasion to carry the ban and permit him to show his innocence.
Folarin’s suspension was ratified by the State Working Committee (SWC) of the occasion in August, following a report by Ward 6 of Sagamu Native Authorities, which indicted him for committing anti-party actions and for failing to reply to the occasion’s summons to defend himself towards the allegations.
Nonetheless, he stated his motion was on account of circumstances past his management.
Within the letter addressed to the state chairman of the occasion and copied to Governor Dapo Abiodun and the APC chairman in Sagamu, Hon Rafiu Opaleye, amongst others, Folarin stated: “I tender an unreserved apology for not honouring the invitation of my ward’s fact-finding committee on account of conditions past my management and hereby request for alternative for my exculpatory proof on this matter.
“I’d be grateful, sir, in the event you might take into account lifting my suspension order whereas I guarantee you that I’ll proceed to uphold the occasion’s values and work diligently with utmost loyalty as ever in direction of delivering my ward for the occasion in all upcoming elections and in direction of the expansion of the occasion in all ramifications. I’m assured that an investigation will reveal the reality of the matter and exonerate me,” he stated.
When contacted, the Ogun APC Director of Publicity, Hon. Nuberu Olufemi, confirmed the event and stated the matter can be deliberated by the related organ of the occasion.
