TVC E, POLITICS – One of the leading APC governorship hopeful and senator representing Ondo North, Prof. Ajayi Boroffice, on Thursday denied snubbing last weekend’s emergency meeting of All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship aspirants in Akoko South West Local Government Area of Ondo State.
The meeting was hosted by former Deputy Governor Ali Olanusi.
In a statement by his media aide, Kayode Adeniyi, the senator said since he received no invitation to the meeting, it was unfair to suggest that he snubbed the meeting.
The statement reads: “It has become necessary to set the record straight on the reported emergency meeting held by party leaders last weekend.
“Indeed, Senator Boroffice received no invitation to the said meeting. He got no invitation letter, received no text message or phone call from the organisers.
“It should be noted that Senator Boroffice had publicly condemned the violence that followed the visit of a governorship aspirant to Iwaro-Oka Akoko. He has nothing to do with the attack.”
